Brothers Osborne Ready For ‘Family Reunion’ At 2024 ACM Awards [Exclusive]

John and TJ Osborne of Brothers Osborne are certainly no strangers to being recognized at award shows for their incredibly successful careers, and with each nomination brings even more excitement. 

Nominated For ACM Duo of the Year

Going into the 59^th Academy of Country Music Awards tonight (May 16), the country duo is feeling the anticipation as they are surrounded by friends and fellow artists Brooks & Dunn, Dan + Shay, Maddie & Tae, and The War & Treaty in the ACM Duo of the Year category. 

“It’s amazing,” John told Country Now. “Every year we come back, we get a little more comfortable. When you’re first starting out, it’s the most terrifying thing ever and now it’s like a nomination is not only putting wind in our sails, but it’s also an invitation to the family reunion.” 

TJ added, “I agree, we come here year after year to do this and we feel way more at ease, which makes it so much more fun.”

‘Break Mine’ EP and Current Single

The pair are fresh off the release of their Break Mine EP. The title track was penned by Brothers Osborne with Shane McAnally and Pete Good and is currently acting as their latest contribution to country radio. TJ was beaming with pride as he reflected on the journey of their song, “Break Mine,” as it was one of the first songs they had recorded out of their latest collection of writes and now it’s become a fan-favorite among listeners. 

“It’s Really Encouraging”

“The song was about half written…Shane called and was like, ‘Hey, I think we need to finish this, it’s really good.’ So I went back and listened, we jumped in the room, finished the song up and it was kind of interesting because it was the first song that we had recorded out of this whole batch of songs. So to kind of see it take on a life from then until now and be released, it’s really encouraging.”

TJ continued, “We write so many songs, you give up on so many songs, even when you release songs, you at some point have to give up on them and move on to new material. It can be kind of frustrating and heartbreaking. So to have a song like that make it through and be out current single, it feels good.”

Brothers Osborne are currently on their headlining Might As Well Be Us Tour, which they recently announced will be expanding to a global audience in 2025 when they head to Ireland and the UK.
