No Need for Paranoia


Despite what they sing on Emotionalism's "Paranoia in B Flat Major," Jay the Intern favorite the Avett Brothers don't have much to worry about after last week's Americana Music Awards at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tenn. The Concord, NC natives received two of the three awards for which they were nominated; "Group/Duo of the Year" and "New/Emerging Artist." Emotionalism lost "Album of the Year" to Patty Griffin's Children Running Through. Griffin also won "Artist of the Year," Buddy Miller won "Instrumentalist of the Year," and Darrell Scott won "Song of the Year" for "Hank William's Ghost." Here's a big Jay the Intern and American Songwriter congrats to all the winners.
