Irene Michaels is having a Josie Music Awards year to remember. The acclaimed entertainer, recording artist, author, and entrepreneur has landed three nominations at the 12th Annual Josie Music Awards, set for September 20 at the legendary Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville — a showing that cements her as one of independent music's most consistent and versatile forces.

Artist of the Year – Pop/Pop Rock

Michaels' first nod recognizes her as one of the year's standout performers in the Pop/Pop Rock category, placing her among a competitive field of independent artists. The nomination reflects a body of work built on reinvention — Michaels has spent recent years establishing herself as a serious recording artist after decades of success in modeling, television, publishing, and philanthropy.

Song of the Year – Multi-Genre

Michaels' single "Younger (K'Alexi Shelby Klassik Filter Mix)" earned her a nomination for Song of the Year in the Multi-Genre category, a nod to the song's crossover appeal and dancefloor-ready production. The nomination places the track alongside some of the year's most genre-blending independent releases.

EP of the Year – Pop/Pop Rock

Rounding out her three nominations, Michaels' EP Golden is up for EP of the Year in the Pop/Pop Rock category — recognition for a full body of work rather than a single moment, and a nod to the cohesive artistic vision behind the project.

Taken together, the three nominations span every level of Michaels' artistry: her presence as a performer, the strength of an individual single, and the vision behind a complete project. It's a showing that puts her in rare company this year, and one that continues a run of Josie recognition dating back to her 2023 win for Best Song of the Year with "I Like Rain."

The 12th Annual Josie Music Awards will be presented September 20 at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville, Tennessee.
