Jason Crabb & Dylan Scott React To GMA Dove Award Nomination For “Good Morning Mercy” Collaboration
Nominations for the 54th Annual GMA Dove Awards were announced this morning during a live broadcast via the Gospel Music Association’s YouTube Channel. Nominations were announced by Natalie Grant, Danny Gokey, JJ Hairston, Jordan Feliz, and Jason Crabb.
Jason Crabb and Dylan Scott were honored to be nominated for their collaboration on the hit single “Good Morning Mercy.”
The song was recorded live, in a studio, and produced by Red Street Records owner, Jay DeMarcus, along with Kevin Rooney.
Jason Crabb expressed his gratitude, stating, “Being nominated for Bluegrass/Country/Roots Song of the Year for” Good Morning Mercy” is truly a blessing. I couldn’t have asked for a better partner than my good buddy, Dylan Scott, to bring this song to life. A huge thank you to Red Street Records for their unwavering support and to the Gospel Music Association voters for this honor. It’s a testament to the power of music and faith combined.”
Echoing the sentiment, Dylan Scott remarked, “So grateful for my friend Jason including me on this song. To be nominated for a GMA Dove Award with him is something I never expected. My mom is smiling down on us today.”
“Having these two incredible singers in the room together was a real honor,” said Jay DeMarcus. “We cut this one in a very unconventional way, with having everyone in the room and going down live. I am very proud to have been a part of this!”
Voted on by the GMA Professional Membership, this year’s nominees were chosen from over 2,046 submitted entries. The GMA Dove Awards Nashville event will be held October 17, 2023, and will air exclusively on TBN and the TBN app on Friday, October 20, 2023, 8:00 p.m. ET and 10:00 p.m. ET.
Two-time GRAMMY award-winning Red Street Records recording artist Jason Crabb and multi-platinum, multi-number one country artist Dylan Scott met by chance one day when Crabb bumped into Scott while getting a haircut. The rest, as the old saying goes, is history.
The original release of “Good Morning Mercy” became a fast hit on the Christian radio charts and in concerts, as well as garnering millions of streams on multiple platforms. The epic collab of Crabb and Scott further propelled the song’s popularity, with the song being featured by People.com with an exclusive video premiere, CMT, Country Now, along with a host of other outlets.
