When Guy Davis got a Grammy nomination for his last album -- Sonny & Brownie's Last Train, an homage to blues legends Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee -- he characteristically took it all in stride.
"In my line of work, you don't depend on winning anything," he says. "I was telling my friends that if I won, I'd start being really obnoxious -- so whatever's good in me, they'd better get it before the Grammys, just in case! But I had a ball at the ceremony. I ran into my old buddy Eric Bibb, and we had a good laugh about us being up for the same award. But it wasn't going to affect what I do."
