Burbank, CA — (January 6, 2014) — Nashville-based singer and songwriter Brandy Clark is gearing up for an exciting 2015, starting off the year with two GRAMMY Award nominations for Best New Artist and Country Album of the Year for her critically acclaimed debut 12 Stories. CBS will air the 57th Annual GRAMMY Awards live from Los Angeles’ Staples Center on February 8, 2015. Clark has also announced that she will perform on ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers on January 12. Two thousand and fourteen was a banner year for the Washington-born-and-bred artist thanks to 12 Stories, which was released in October 2013 to widespread critical acclaim. It was named Best Album of 2013 by New York Magazine (which called Clark “a brisk, vivid, witty storyteller”), NPR, The New York Post, and The Boston Globe, whose critic wrote that “in a bountiful year for female country singer-songwriters, Clark was at the head of the class, mining deep veins and yielding lyrical insights from the smallest moments in life that bind us together.” 12 Stories also appeared on year-end best-of lists in Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, and The Los Angeles Times. The latter called it “the country debut of the year.” Last fall, Clark was nominated for two CMA Awards, for New Artist of the Year and Song of the Year, winning the latter for co-writing Kacey Musgraves’ hit “Follow Your Arrow” with Musgraves and Shane McAnally. With the win, Clark and Musgraves joined an exclusive club of only 14 women who have written a CMA Song of the Year. Clark will hit the road with Alan Jackson on January 8 for his 25th Anniversary Tour, which wraps up in mid-May. All dates can be viewed here. The most anticipated album this January will be released next Tuesday, January 13th when Cody Canada and The Departed's HIPPIELOVEPUNK hits stores and online retailers. Canada tells Rolling Stone "I think some of the things we did on the last record were a little out of my element. I wasn't leading. I know that sounds cocky, but I've been the leader for so long. When the Departed started, it was me and Seth sharing that role. We both got tired of that situation, and I think we were both ready to lead again. This record is back to a comfort zone for me. It's me writing the songs. It's me sharing my opinion. We've hit a few bumps in the road with this band because people have been wanting the Ragweed sound, and I think we're kind of getting back to that."

Starkey Hearing Foundation uses hearing as a vehicle to reflect caring and change lives around the world. Disabling hearing loss affects more than 360 million people, including 32 million children, worldwide, yet many do not have access to the hearing devices that can help them. Starkey Hearing Foundation fits and gives more than 100,000 hearing aids annually, and as a member of President Clinton’s Global Initiative, it has pledged to fit one million hearing aids this decade. In addition to giving the gift of hearing through worldwide hearing missions, they also promote hearing health awareness and education through the Listen Carefully campaign and provides hearing instruments to low-income Americans through the Hear Now program.
