Grammy Nods
So check this out. Some friends of mine are up for a couple Grammy’s and I wanted to offer up a little congrats to them. Now, I wasn’t really paying attention when they announced them but I have heard through a bunch of people and then I went and looked for myself.
First up, Billy is nominated for two himself, which is pretty awesome. Best Male Country Vocal Performance and Best Country Song. Not bad huh?
Then the boys in Third Day are up for a few. Best Gospel Performance, Best Gospel Song, and Best Rock Or Rap Gospel Album.
The Leeland boys are up for Best Pop/Contemporary Gospel Album.
And SkörInc‘s own Matthew West is up for Best Gospel Song for “The Motions”.
Anyway, it’s pretty cool to see all these guys up for stuff, and it actually gives me a reason to watch the Grammy’s again.
So here’s a question. What’s your favorite ‘Awards show’ to watch? Grammy’s? Emmy’s? Oscars? Golden Globes?
Ready? Go.
Matthew Perryman Jones

I’ve been hooked on this album for the last few days. This song specifically. The lyrics blow me away, and hits me where I’ve been for the last few months.
I’ve seen this guy play a few times here in Nashville and always loved his stuff, but never picked it up until a few weeks back when I was testing out NoiseTrade and I haven’t stopped listening to it. In fact I was just looking at his tour dates and realized that next week he is playing a benefit for Blood Water Mission here in Nashville with another long time favorite band of mine, Sixpence None The Richer, so I’ll be sure to check that out.
If you haven’t yet, make sure to go to NoiseTrade and download this record. Really, why wouldn’t you? It’s free with a couple emails and if you can’t think of any emails use mine.
Go now, and be happy.
