Jack White, Kings of Leon, Civil Wars Earn Grammy Nods

Nominations for the 56th Annual Grammy Awards were announced live last night in Los Angeles (instead of Nashville, like last year) and, unsurprisingly, a ton of local artists scored nods. Though fewer Nashville rock acts were included in (or were qualified for) the major categories, some of our faves like Jack White, Kings of Leon, The Civil Wars, and almost-but-not-quite Nashville band Alabama Shakes were recognized. Of course, Music City also utterly dominated in the country, folk, Americana, gospel, Christian, and bluegrass arenas, and country pop darlings Taylor Swift and Kacey Musgraves got some impressive major recognition, for Album of the Year and Best New Artist, respectively. Below, check out a list of Nashville nominees (let us know if we missed any!) and, after the jump, a full list of 2014 nominees. The Grammys will air live Jan. 26 at 7 p.m. CST on CBS.
