The Mavericks have been nominated for two awards at the upcoming 2016 Grammy Awards -- honors that the quartet says they are "incredibly grateful" for.

The group -- made up of Raul Malo, Paul Deakin, Eddie Perez and Jerry Dale McFadden -- is nominated for Best American Roots Song, for "All Night Long," and Best Americana Album, for their most recent record, Mono.

“We are incredibly grateful that our music is able to do exactly what we intended … free people from themselves and their struggles,” Malo says in a press release. “On the road, our fans dance, cry, sing, laugh and get into a vibe that transcends outside obstacles like race, language and social status. Thank you to the Recording Academy for noticing and again believing in the Mavericks.”

Adds Perez, "This band has always defied the odds and expectations ... a country band from Miami with a Cuban singer? But it works, because people feel the passion."

The Mavericks' latest Grammys nods come two decades after the band's first Grammy Awards win: They took home the award for Best Country Performance By a Duo or Group With Vocal in 1995.

The 2016 Grammy Awards are set to air live on CBS on Feb. 15 at 8PM ET. Mono is available for download via iTunes and Amazon.
