The Oak Ridge Boys won the ACM Top Vocal group and single of the year for Elvira. They have won the CMA awards Instrumental Group of the Year, Vocal Group of the Year, Single of the Year "Elvira, and the Instrumental Group of the Year.

The Oak Ridge Boys have also won several Grammy Awards including the Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal for Elvira.

But their biggest award and honor came in 2015 when they were inducted into the Country Music Hall Of fame.

The Oak Ridge Boys will be live at the Golden Nugget in Lake Charles on Friday, January 21 in the Grand Event Center.  The show will start at 8:30 pm.
