Nashville, TN (October 22, 2015) – Vevo exclusively premieres the brand new music video for Black River Entertainment recording artist Kelsea Ballerini’s Top 20-and-rising single “Dibs” today (10/22) across Vevo, the world’s leading all-premium music video and entertainment platform.

Recently, Ballerini earned her first-ever American Music Awards (AMA) nomination for 2015 Favorite Female Artist - Country. The fan-voted awards show will air live from Los Angeles on November 22nd at 8 p.m. ET on ABC. Voting is now open via

Ballerini launched to stardom with the release of her #1, GOLD-certified debut "Love Me Like You Mean It" and current hit “Dibs.” Abuzz with shout-outs from superstars Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood and Little Big Town, she is the first solo female artist in nine years to hit #1 with her debut country single and one of only 11 women to have ever hit the top of the charts with a debut. Scoring a number of recent high-profile media appearances, the talented singer/songwriter has been named “The Country Sweetheart” in People Magazine’s elite “Ones to Watch” portfolio, touted by Billboard Magazine as “Country’s Next Queen,” praised by Rolling Stone as the “Nashville It Girl” and selected as one of CMT’s Next Women of Country. She is currently touring in support of her debut album THE FIRST TIME. Co-produced by Forest Glen Whitehead and Jason Massey, the album landed Top 5 on the Billboard Country Albums Chart and released to rave reviews with Billboard acclaiming, “Her frankness and honesty are rooted in country’s long tradition of storytelling, a tradition that she deftly adapts to both 21st century and timeless concerns.”
