Playing a barn-burning version of “You and Me” accompanied by a group of teenage musicians, DMB had one of the best performances of the Grammy Awards this year. The band’s album Big Whiskey & the GrooGrux King was nominated for two awards, but came away somehow with no awards. Despite the disappointment of not winning, it was great to see them perform “You and Me” live in such a big setting. The young musicians did a great job performing the song as Dave bounced around the stage during an impressive instrumental section. Dave’s buddy Adam Sandler introduced the band and special guests. Matthews is known to pop up in Adam Sandler movies and the two seem to have a mutual appreciation for one another’s work. The performance featured forty five 16-year-old kids playing horns, drums, strings, and singing along with the world-famous group. The night must of been a great thrill for all the young musicians as well as DMB.
