My Grammy Acceptance Speech
Last Sunday I had the great pleasure of attending the
Grammy Awards in Los Angeles with my Mom. We went on the
courteous invite of the Recording Academy as nominees in
two categories. Though we didn't take home any trophies, we
were delighted to have seen such an awesome concert from
the third row while bumping fists with the beautiful Sara
Bareilles, our friends in Sugarland, Neil Diamond, & Sir
Paul McCartney to name a few. I couldn't have asked for a
more exciting night out with my Mom.
Here's a picture of her looking radiant.

Had I been given the chance to publicly announce my
gratitude for Song of the Year I would have said this:
I can't take credit for a song that wrote itself. I'm only
one of millions who sing along to its message of peace &
love. AND I THINK HUMANS WERE PUT ON THIS EARTH TO MAKE
MUSIC. Each one of us IS a living instrument with a
responsibility to sing out, to share, to cry and wail, for
progress and for healing. I am grateful I get to sing with
so many.
Thank you Bill Silva & my incredible support team at Bill
Silva Management. Thanks to Sam Riback and all the
caregivers at Atlantic Records. Martin Terefe & The
Kensaltown Kings for helping me make a great recording. And
to the Gratitude Community in the Bay area, my families in
San Diego, and Mechanicsville, VA, thanks for the
inspiration.
And as for the Best Male Pop Vocal Awesomeness, I'd like to
acknowledge John Mayer for being so generous with his gifts
in music, but also for being so outspoken regarding his
admiration for I'm Yours. I am blessed just to participate
in music, but even more blessed to do so at a time when the
music community is so loving and encouraging. Thank you
John. It is a great honor to be recognized by one's peers.
You deserve every bit of acclaim that's out there. Hope to
see you and your giant heart on the road again soon.
In Joy!
