Johnson is one of only a few people in the history of country music to win two Song of the Year Awards from both the CMA and ACMs. His 2008 album, That Lonesome Song, went platinum, and his 2010 ambitious double album, The Guitar Song, went gold. In addition, Johnson won two Song of the Year Awards, for “Give It Away” and “In Color,” both from the Academy of Country Music and the Country Music Association. Johnson has received tremendous praise from The New York Times, Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal, and other publications, many hailing his albums as masterpieces. In 2013, Nashville Scene’s 13th Annual Country Music Critics’ Poll named Living for a Song: A Tribute to Hank Cochran the year’s best album. Two years earlier, the same poll named Johnson’s The Guitar Song the year's best album, and Johnson himself Best Male Vocalist, Best Songwriter, and Artist of the Year.
