Kym Warner is going to the 2010 Grammy Awards and he's taking WAMU's Bluegrass Country along for the ride! Kym, whose band The Greencards are nominated in the Best Country Instrumental Performance category, will be blogging daily and taking photos for BluegrassCountry.org all week long to provide news updates for our listeners. For a fun, irreverent, insider look at one man's quest to win a very expensive golden hood ornament, follow Kym's blog.
