Grammy Award for Best Country Solo Performance

Der Grammy Award for Best Country Solo Performance („Grammy-Award für die beste Country-Solodarbietung“) ist ein Musikpreis, der seit 2012 bei den jährlich stattfindenden Grammy Awards verliehen wird. Der Preis wird an Künstler für Solo-Darbietungen, eingeschlossen Gesangsdarbietungen oder Instrumentaldarbietungen aus dem Bereich der Country-Musik vergeben. Dabei ist der Preis auf einzelne Tracks oder Singles begrenzt.

Zum Grammy Award for Best Pop Solo Performance wurden die bis 2011 verliehenen Grammys für Best Female Country Vocal Performance, Best Male Country Vocal Performance und der Best Country Instrumental Performance zusammengelegt, da die NARAS die Anzahl der Kategorien deutlich reduzieren sowie teilweise die Trennung von Gesangs- und Instrumentaldarbietungen in den Kategorien abschaffen wollte.^[1]

Der Preis wurde bislang nur an amerikanische Künstler vergeben, die häufigsten Nominierungen ohne Preis gingen an den Sänger Blake Shelton, der insgesamt dreimal nominiert wurde.
