In the newest episode of Where DO You Keep Your GRAMMY?, GRAMMY-winning musician and songwriter Amanda Shires invites us into "Internal Wandering," her barn studio and creative sanctuary, for a candid reflection on what it means to earn music's highest honor and what comes with it.
Filmed at her personal workspace outside Nashville, Amanda shares why she keeps her GRAMMY right where she works every day, as a reminder of the hours it takes to make something real, and to let the award live alongside the ongoing work. She opens up about the responsibility that comes with recognition, the importance of taking care of fellow musicians, and the moment she got the call about her nomination, including an honest and funny admission about the prep that followed.
A violinist, singer, and songwriter with deep roots in Americana and Country, Amanda Shires has built one of the most distinctive voices in modern roots music. In addition to her acclaimed solo catalog, she is a member of Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, with whom she won the GRAMMY for Best Americana Album for 'The Nashville Sound'. She is also a founding member of The Highwomen alongside Brandi Carlile, Maren Morris, and Natalie Hemby.
