Nickel Creek's Sean Watkins has teamed up with singer-songwriter Fiona Apple for a new version of a bluegrass classic. The two artists are breathing new life into a 19th century murder ballad, "Banks of the Ohio."
The Best Americana Album category at the 2015 Grammy Awards has a slew of fantastic records in the mix. In 2014, Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell took home the hardware with 'Old Yellow Moon.' This year, fan-favorite artists like Rosanne Cash, Nickel Creek and more are vying for a win.
The Grammys always feature top-notch artists, and the competition for Best American Roots Performance at the 2015 Grammy Awards is heated. This award is a new category, having been approved by the Board of Trustees of the Grammy Awards in June 2014, and is for singles or tracks only.
