Bice collaborator wins Grammy
Congratulations to Chris Tompkins and his co-writer Josh Kear on their Country Song of the Year Grammy win for Before He Cheats!
Chris is an old friend of Bo’s and the two of them wrote I’m Gone, which is on Bo’s album See The Light, and American Blood, which I suspect has been getting a lot of applause in Afghanistan and Kuwait this week.
Here’s Bo and Chris performing American Blood at the Exit/In in Nashville in February, 2007.
And I’m Gone that same evening.

Congratulations to Chris! What an honor. I wish he had won best song too, but ‘Rehab’ was tough competition.

Congratulations Chris!!!!
I’m Gone in Nashville is one of my all-time Bo highlights. I am so happy I saw Chris perform with Bo that night!

What a well-deserved honor for Josh & Chris!! I hope you get used to those acceptance speeches, Chris, because we expect to see you and Bo up there sometime soon!

Congrats to Chris Tompkinson. (tm Chris/Bluebird) What a whole lotta talent, and a funny man, too! I just bet we’ll be hearing a lot more of I’m Gone and American Blood. All in good time.
