The Americana Music Association Awards take place tonight in Nashville, but unfortunately you won't find them on TV. (Too bad, since the quality of musicianship is undoubtedly higher than that found on most other music awards shows.)
There's good news, however: NPR Music is offering audio streaming of the Americana Music Awards (note: it's an early show, starting at 7:30 p.m. Eastern time).
And Amazon.com is offering a FREE Americana Music Awards Sampler with 14 tunes from folks including John Hiat, Buddy & Julie Miller, the Avett Brothers, James McMurtry, and Canadian Corb Lund (the "Hurtin' Albertan"). (This free sampler download offer may be good only in the U.S.)

1. The Open Road, John Hiatt
2. All The Time, Elizabeth Cook
