Best New Artist

Moving on to another performer, another country performer no less -- hey, when in Rome -- Luke Bryan serenaded the crowd with 'I Don't Want This Night To End.' He needn't worry as this Nashville party isn't about to end anytime soon as the spotlight is taken over by Mmmmm motor boaters, Little Big Town, to introduce the nominees for Best New Artist as follows:

Alabama Shakes
Fun.
Hunter Hayes
The Lumineers
Frank Ocean

D'aaaaw, sorry Carly Rae, we guess one lone hit wasn't enough to get noticed. But hey, we just met her, so maybe she's still in with a chance for another category...
