This is Texas country legend Willie Nelson’s 57th Grammy nomination. He has already earned 12 wins, including a lifetime achievement award in 1999. This marks San Benito-born, Austin-based Charley Crockett’s second Grammy nomination. His 2024 release “$10 Cowboy” earned a nomination in the  best Americana album category.

Willie’s son Lukas Nelson earned his first individual Grammy nomination this year. He shared two nominations in 2019 for production work on his father’s 68th release “My Way,” a Frank Sinatra tribute which was up for best traditional pop vocal, and for production on Willie’s song “Last Man Standing,” which was nominated for best American roots performance.

Lukas also scored a Grammy win that year as part of the team behind the “A Star Is Born” movie soundtrack, which won  best compilation soundtrack for visual media.
