Jelly Roll has been named the 2026 recipient of the Artist Humanitarian Award by the Country Radio Broadcasters.

He will receive the honour during the Country Radio Seminar in March. He is being recognized for his dedication to addiction recovery, mental health and giving back to the community. Jelly spends a lot of his time advocating for juveniles in detention centres. He has spoken with inmates nationwide and, most recently, he visited the Davidson County detention centre to serve holiday meals to inmates and staff. The award, which was founded in 1990, recognizes country artists who have made a meaningful difference in the causes they support.
