MUMFORD & SONS
Dan Auerbach and his colleague Patrick Carney won in the categories of best rock song and best rock performance for Lonely Boy. The Black Keys’ El Camino was named best rock album and Auerbach may call himself a producer of the year. Another band, however, was off with the award for Album of the Year: Mumford & Sons with Babel. The win came as a surprise for the men ‘as The Black Keys all day to win were’.
