RCA's The Red Clay Strays added to growing Grammy buzz across multiple genres by taking home Emerging Act of the Year last night (9/18) at the 2024 Americana Honors & Awards in Nashville.
The Mobile, Alabama-reared group is pricking up ears with its latest album, Made by These Moments, and recently sold out three nights at Ryman Auditorium. Its soul-tinged rock sound can be experienced on a fall U.S. tour of clubs and theaters, as well as high-profile festival appearances at Bourbon and Beyond this weekend in Louisville, Kentucky, and Austin City Limits in October.
Red Clay Strays could be contenders for the Best New Artist Grammy, and if so, they'd likely be the only Americana band in the mix. Frontman Brandon Coleman’s terrific voice and smoldering presence have galvanized crowds on the road, and the troupe’s songs are deep and strong.
Elsewhere at the Americana Honors, Sierra Ferrell won artist of the year and album of the year for Trail of Flowers. Brandy Clark and Michael Pollack took home song of the year for "Dear Insecurity," a duet with Brandi Carlile.
