Nate Smith may have three #1 hits under his belt, but earning a CMA New Artist nomination still feels pretty surreal.
“It does feel good. It’s just crazy. I mean, if you knew me, man, from my hometown and growing up and stuff, you’d be like, ‘This dork. How is he up here? How did he get these number ones? How [is he] nominated for stuff?”” Nate tells ABC Audio.
“Honestly, it’s a miracle,” he adds. “It really makes me think that anything’s possible.”
Other New Artist nominees include Megan Moroney, Shaboozey, Bailey Zimmerman, Zach Top and Mitchell Tenpenny.
The 2024 CMAs, hosted by Luke Bryan, Lainey Wilson and Peyton Manning, air live from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and stream the next day on Hulu.
