Sunday Music Clip (The Grascals)

Sunday, October 21st, 2007

This week’s Sunday Music Clip is here to inject a little bluegrass into your weekend. The Grascals, one of the International Bluegrass Music Association’s (IBMA) hottest acts of 2007, may not be mainstream, but they certainly should be! Their harmonies are impressive and their acoustic sound is irresistable. Check out their video for “Me and John and Paul”.

IBMA Awards Results

Friday, October 5th, 2007

grascals.jpgLast night in Nashville at the Grand Ole Opry House, bluegrass artists from across the globe gathered to celebrate the best in their genre with the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) Awards. All of the perennial nominees and favorites were again up for the awards this year, but many were surprised when artists such as Alison Krauss and Union Station, Ricky Skaggs, Rhonda Vincent, Cherryholmes, and Del McCoury left the ceremony empty handed.

Both Krauss and Vincent, who was ill and did not attend the awards ceremony, were beaten in the Female Vocalist award by first time winner Dale Ann Bradley. The Grascals, last year’s Entertainer of the Year recipients secured the repeat in that category. While they went home without an award, the Cherryholmes performed live and brought down the house with their step-dancing routine at the end.

For an entire list of winners, keep reading after the jump.
