Mountain Home Congratulates Carley Arrowood on IBMA Songwriter of the Year Nomination

Mountain Home Music Company congratulates Carley Arrowood on her nomination for the International Bluegrass Music Association's Industry Award for Songwriter of the Year.
Arrowood, whose sophomore album, Colors, was released earlier this year, has already been recognized by the IBMA as both an instrumentalist and vocalist, winning a Momentum Award in the former category in 2017 and in the latter in 2023. As a songwriter, she is known not only for strong, musically sophisticated gospel and secular originals, but both traditional and contemporary instrumentals, too. Arrowood contributed six numbers in all three categories to each of her two albums, including her debut project's "Dancing in the Rain," which took second place in the Hazel Dickens Songwriting contest in 2017; "Moondancer" (Colors) which won first place in the same contest in 2023, and "Tsali's Run" (Colors), one of the best-charting instrumentals of 2023.
"I'm so honored and grateful for this. It's such a stout list of the industry's best songwriters, and to be thought about among them is just way too cool!" says Arrowood. "God has blessed me beyond measure even before this nomination and I'm thankful for every new opportunity He gives me and my band. Thanks, everyone!"
