Jeremy Camp, Brandon Heath and the sister duo Mary Mary have been nominated in the Contemporary Inspirational Favorite Artist category of the American Music Awards (AMA).

Mary Mary, who won Favorite Inspirational/Christian Contemporary Artist in 2005, was also nominated for Favorite Band, Duo or Group in the Soul/Rhythm & Blues category. Mary Mary has already been recognized this year with a GRAMMY, Dove Award and NAACP Image Award for the album The Sound (Columbia Records/Provident-Integrity Distribution).

Heath, who won three Dove Awards earlier this year, received his first AMA nod.  "I've been watching the AMAs for years-never thought I'd have the honor of being a nominee," he said.

For the third year, winners will be determined by online voting. The 37th annual AMA show is to be broadcast live by ABC from Los Angeles at 8 p.m. EST, Sunday, Nov. 22.
