Aaron Shust Nominations

Posted by Kevan Breitinger Feb 22, 2007

Nominations include “Song of the Year,” “Male Vocalist of the Year,” “New Artist of the Year,” “Worship Song of the Year” and “Pop/Contemporary Recorded Song of the Year.” Other award nominations associated with Shust’s work included a “Musical of the Year” nomination for a musical based on his hit song “My Savior My God.”

The announcement follows a groundbreaking year for the debut artist in which Shust saw his hit single “My Savior My God” end 2006 as the year’s most played song at Christian Radio on multiple formats with over 5 million impressions.

This week also marked the beginning of Shust’s 40-city tour with MercyMe and Audio Adrenaline, which began with a stop in Tulsa, Okla., where Shust’s performance was met with a standing ovation from the capacity crowd. “I am absolutely stunned,” said Shust. “I’ll have to be honest that in the midst of kicking off the tour, I forgot that the announcements were today, so it’s a total surprise. This year has been more amazing than I could have ever imagined. I’m humbled and speechless except to say ‘thank you’.”

In addition to the explosive radio success of “My Savior My God,” Shust has seen two additional radio singles reach the Top 5, including his current song “Give It All Away,” which continues to climb the radio charts and impact sales of his debut project, Anything Worth Saying. Accolades extend well beyond award nominations and radio, as fans embraced the debut record, whose sales have topped 140,000 units in the last twelve months alone.
