Vote for Gloria's 'One Day at a Time' for favourite song
‘One Day at a Time’, Navan singer Gloria’s hit song, is in the running Ireland’s ‘All Time Favourite Country Song’, at the inaugural RTÉ Irish Country Music Awards later this month.
In the late 1970s Gloria’s version of the song reached No 1 in the Irish charts. It remained on the charts for 90 weeks - the longest run for any single in Irish chart history, a record it still holds today.
The four nominations in the category: ‘Pretty Little Girl From Omagh’, ‘One Day At A Time Sweet Jesus’, ‘Four Country Roads’ and ‘Wagon Wheel’. The stars of Irish country music will gather for the inaugural RTÉ Irish Country Music Awards, in association with the Irish Farmers Journal, on Friday 24th June, live from RTÉ studios. Daniel O’Donnell will host and perform at the star-studded event.
The live 90 minute broadcast on RTÉ One is organised in partnership with the Irish Country Music Association (ICMA) -the body that represents the biggest names in country music.
Coming live from RTÉ studios, the awards will also feature special performances from some of Irish country music’s biggest acts including, Nathan Carter, Big Tom McBride, Derek Ryan, Michael English, Mike Denver, Lisa McHugh, Jimmy Buckley, Jim Devine and Philomena Begley.
Awards up for grabs on the night include: Female Artist of the Year, Male Artist of the Year, Live Act of the Year, Video of the Year and Newcomer of the Year. Winners will be decided by an independent committee overseen by the ICMA.
The highly-coveted ICMA Entertainer of the Year will be one of two categories open to a public vote. The nominees are Nathan Carter, Derek Ryan, Mike Denver and Jimmy Buckley. The pioneers of the Irish country music scene will also be honoured at the ceremony through the RTÉ ICMA Hall of Fame and Lifetime Achievement awards.
