Steve Martin wins Grammy Award

Talk about successful and well-rounded: Steve Martin can act, perform stand-up comedy AND sing, as evidenced by winning a Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Album.

Martin took the award home for “The Crow / New Songs For The Five-String Banjo” at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards last Sunday. This marks Martin’s fourth Grammy win.

His first win came in 1978 for Best Comedy Album for “Let’s Get Small.” He also won in the same category in 1979 for “A Wild and Crazy Guy.” In 2009, he shared the award for Best Country Instrumental Performance with Earl Scruggs et al for his banjo performance of “Foggy Mountain Breakdown.”
