LITTLE BIG TOWN ‘CRUSHES’ THE GRAMMY NOMINATIONS.

Little Big Town

Little Big Town received a pair of Grammy nominations for Best Country Duo/Group Performance for “Better Man” and Best Country Album for The Breaker.  “Better Man” also received a nomination for Country Song of the Year; it was written by Taylor Swift.

LBT’s Karen Fairchild recalls one of her favorite memories at the Grammys when they made their Grammy stage debut to perform their hit “Girl Crush” in 2016.

“I love, I mean selfishly, I love singing ‘Girl Crush’ on there, because we had never been on the Grammy stage before,” says Karen. “[We had] an all-female orchestra. It was just so special and we’re so grateful we won a Grammy that night. So, that has to be my best memory.”

Bandmate Phillip Sweet agrees. “I think one of my most special memories from the Grammy Awards, honestly, was when we got to perform ‘Girl Crush’ on the show, but it was with this beautiful 15-piece orchestra and the arrangement was done by David Campbell who is a master arranger,” he says. “It was the most rewarding, artistic moment but also just a beautiful celebration of a classic, and I think, amazing song. [I’m] grateful we got to be the ones to record it and perform it, but that was one of my favorites.”

Little Big Town, who’s climbing the country charts with “When Someone Stops Loving You,” can next be seen on their upcoming The Breakers Tour, launching next year with opening acts Kacey Musgraves and Midland.

KAREN: “My favorite Grammy memory is probably, I have a couple, Prince and Beyonce; so epic and so electric. I love, love, love that memory. I love, I mean selfishly, I love singing ‘Girl Crush’ on there, because we had never been on the Grammy stage before, so. [We had] an all-female orchestra. It was just so special and we’re so grateful we won a Grammy that night. So, that has to be my best memory.”
