There are 14 country stars who should be given more recognition. While Dwight Yoakam may have seemed like the most overlooked singer in country music, we recently discovered the impressive achievements of another iconic country artist.
Yoakam has a very low batting average of .081 (3 hits out of 37 attempts) when it comes to the CMA, ACM, and Grammy Awards. However, despite this, he has managed to win three times. The Bellamy Brothers would be extremely fortunate to have such success.
David and Howard Bellamy, a duo in the country music industry, have an astonishing record of 0-29 at the three most significant music awards shows. It is remarkable because no other country music pair has received more nominations in the duo category, yet they have never emerged as winners. The Bellamy brothers have been consistently overlooked to the extent that the Taste of Country team did not even include them in their list of deserving artists who are not yet in the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Below, you will find a list of 14 artists, specifically legacy acts, who we believe deserve more respect.
We will discuss unappreciated modern country singers another time.
This list includes two highly acclaimed female solo artists and three well-known groups. It also includes Billy Ray Cyrus, which we understand may cause some disagreement. Nevertheless, the facts speak for themselves – it's about time we acknowledge him and his 13 associates with a little more admiration.
