The Lifetime Career Achievement Award honors those that have made a profound impact in music through their creative contributions of outstanding artistic significance.
Lacy J. Dalton has had an incredible career with many highlights including in 1979 she was awarded the Academy of Country Music’s Top New Female Vocalist of the Year. In June 1979, Lacy J Dalton was signed by Columbia Records and quickly rose to national prominence with Crazy Blue Eyes, which she wrote with her longest friend, Mary McFadden, and which raced to #7 on the Billboard Country Charts. Lacy’s success was powered not just by her recordings, but by a stage show that truly electrified audiences. She quickly became one of the few women who could successfully open a show for the likes of Hank Williams, Jr., Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, or Charlie Daniels. Not only could she do it, but she left audiences across the country hollering for more. Her signature song 16th Avenue became the Anthem for Nashville songwriters and was voted one of Country’s Top 100 Songs ever by Billboard Magazine. Her other hit records are legendary million-airplay cuts and include Crazy Blue Eyes, Takin’ It Easy, Everybody Makes Mistakes, Hillbilly Girl with the Blues, Hard Times, and the worldwide hit Black Coffee.
The Josie Music Awards founded in 2015 by Josie Passantino-Boone and Tinamarie Passantino celebrates musical achievements yearly with a lavish red carpet, full production show. The Josie Music Awards (JMAs) are the largest, privately-owned, multi-genre, independent music award show.
