00:00 I'm hanging out with Billy Strings here at the Grammys.
00:02 First of all, loving the suit and loving that you brought Dad.
00:05 Dad, how are you?
00:06 I'm great.
00:07 How are you doing?
00:08 Happy to see you here, my friend.
00:11 Now, you're nominated twice tonight, okay?
00:13 So Bluegrass, three times.
00:15 Bluegrass album, Country Duo.
00:16 What else?
00:17 I did one with Willie Nelson, California Sober.
00:19 I think it's for Americana, maybe.
00:21 I mean, just racking up the nominations.
00:23 How is it to work with all these people?
00:25 Jerks Bentley?
00:27 It's an honor.
00:28 I mean, it's the most incredible thing to be nominated for the record that I made with
00:33 my dad.
00:34 I'm so honored to be able to bring him here and to put that Bluegrass music out there.
00:40 There's nobody that does it like him.
00:42 And I'm sure you're all of his inspiration for Bluegrass.
00:45 So how was it to work with your son?
00:46 It was fantastic.
00:48 Very fantastic.
00:49 I thought this would never happen.
00:52 And it did.
00:53 Look at us now.
00:54 Me, so amazed.
00:55 Thank you, brother.
00:56 And then what's the father-son duo going to do tonight if you take home some gold?
01:00 I'll just go back to the old--
01:03 Cry.
01:04 Yeah, go back to the Sunset Marquee and, I don't know, celebrate.
01:07 Play some pool and guitar.
01:10 That sounds like a good time.
01:11 Who are you excited to see tonight at the show?
01:12 I don't even really know who's performing or anything.
01:16 I'm actually not sure.
01:17 I mean, Dad, I got to ask you.
01:19 You're walking the carpet.
01:20 Who are you excited to bump into, rub some elbows with?
01:23 Emmanuel.
01:24 Oh, yeah.
01:25 Tommy Emmanuel?
01:26 Tommy, yes.
01:27 Absolutely.
01:28 Well, I hope that happens for you.
01:30 I hope you guys win tonight.
01:31 And have a great time at the show.
01:32 Thank you, sir.
01:33 Thank you so much.
01:34 Thank you.
