"The Way It Is" earned Hornsby his first Grammy; his second was for "Valley Road," bluegrass at its best. Bruce Hornsby is treasured for both his piano playing and his songwriting. He has played with the greats-from Jerry Garcia to Branford Marsalis to Bonnie Raitt-and he has made his mark-triple platinum with his debut album, "The Way It Is." His debut generated three Top 20 hits, including its #1 title track, and earned Bruce Hornsby the Best New Artist Grammy in 1986. Number 2 Grammy came for Best Bluegrass Recording for "Valley Road" and his third for Best Pop Instrumental for "Barcelona Mona," created with Branford Marsalis for the Barcelona Olympics.
