Kentucky native Sturgill Simpson won the Grammy Award for Best Country Album for his critically acclaimed "A Sailor's Guide to Earth." The award was presented during the pre-telecast of the awards. Below is Sturgill Simpson's acceptance speech:
"Like six years ago, I was in Utah working on the railroad, writing songs at night. My wife made me quit that job and move to Nashville, so thanks babe. My son was born; I spent that spent first year on the road, missing them, and if it wasn’t for them I wouldn’t have written this album, so I have to thank them. And I guess the revolution won’t be televised. Thank you.”
