Single Lock Records, the artist-run and independent Southern American music label, congratulates Cedric Burnside, Cha Wa and The Blind Boys of Alabama on their 2022 GRAMMY Award nominations for releases on Single Lock this year.

Congratulations to Rhiannon Giddens & Francesco Turrisi. Their album They’re Calling Me Home (Nonesuch) was nominated for two GRAMMY Awards today: Best Folk Album and Best American Roots Song for “Avalon” (Giddens’ first nomination in this category). Giddens is now an 8-time nominee and won a GRAMMY Award in 2010 for Best Traditional Folk Album for Genuine Negro Jig.

Jackson Browne has received a GRAMMY nomination for Best Americana Album, for Downhill From Everywhere.

"Jackson Browne has uniquely and consistently delivered brilliant albums and songs throughout his career,” said Jed Hilly, Executive Director of the Americana Music Association. “He's been a defining Americana artist, not just for the songs he gives to us but also for his thoughtful lyrics and craftsmanship to address the times we live in.”

Throughout his brief but influential life, Charlie “Bird” Parker made an enormous impact on popular music as one of the architects of modern jazz. The jazz titan, inarguably one of the greatest saxophonists of all time, grew up in Kansas City, Missouri and spent much of his adult life in New York, but Los Angeles nonetheless looms large in his musical life as he spent more time in L.A. than anywhere outside of K.C. and N.Y.

SOJA, the internationally acclaimed eight-piece from Washington D.C., have received their third GRAMMMY® Nomination in the Best Reggae Album category for their seventh studio album Beauty The Silence (released September 24 on ATO Records). The collection made waves when it entered the top of Billboard’s Reggae Albums Chart, at No. 34 on Billboard's Current Albums Chart and at No. 52 on Billboard's Top Album Sales Chart upon its debut earlier this fall.
