Gordon Mote this week learned he is the winner of another Academy of Country Music Piano/Keyboards Player of the year award. He announced the news to his fans in a newsletter on Wednesday.

“I am in total shock.  Thanks to the Academy of Country Music for this great honor.  I’m so blessed to live and work in Nashville with some of the greatest musicians in the world.  Congratulations to all the winners.  Thanks also to the artists and producers who trust us with their music,” said Gordon.

To be sure where his priorities are, he ended with, “To God Be The Glory!”

By the way, this is Gordon’s third time to win the award even though the competition includes the top players in the industry.

Here’s a sample of Gordon’s playing. This is one of a series of videos he’s posting to YouTube for Christmas.
