That’s a wrap! The 2022 GRAMMYs, officially the 64th GRAMMY Awards, took place yesterday on April 3 at MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas. ABS is happy to report that among the big wins were Christone “Kingfish” Ingram and Cedric Burnside!

Ingram won the Contemporary Blues Album category for album 662, beating The Black Keys and Steve Cropper. In his acceptance speech, the guitar wunderkind thanked “God, my family, my manager and Alligator Records.

He accepted the award alongside producer Lawrence “Boo” Mitchell of Royal Studios. In his speech, he stated, “I’m a little Mississippi boy ’bout to open up a juke joint for the first time. If you ever in the ‘Sip come by and juke a little bit. Thank you all so much.”
