Alan Jackson and Zac Brown
and the
Zac Brown Band
each won their second career
Grammy for their No. 1 hit,
"As
She's Walking Away," on Sunday (Feb. 13) in Los Angeles. The song won for best country collaboration with vocals. Last
year, the Zac Brown Band won for best new artist, while Jackson's "Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)" won a
Grammy in 2002 for best country song." Jackson presented Brown with a 1966 Cadillac El Dorado in December as a token of gratitude.
"I was real honored when Zac asked me to be on this record," Jackson said. "You know, it's pretty cool when a few of us Georgia
boys can end up winning a Grammy out in L.A." Brown noted, "It was an honor to be recognized by the Recording Academy as best
new artist last year, and to be able to follow that up with another win this year was just incredible. We want to thank our
supportive fans, our hard working team and all the great artists who've collaborated with us, including one of our musical
heroes, Alan Jackson, who we share the win for best country collaboration. We're thrilled, and we're simply going to continue
making music we love playing."
