The Zac Brown Band took home the Grammy Award for Country Collaboration with Vocals last night for their song “As She’s Walking Away,” which features Alan Jackson. Backstage, Zac revealed they almost didn’t get permission to record the song at all. Zac Said “We wrote this song for Alan to sing it with us. It took a little time to actually talk his label into letting us do it. It took several days of hounding them and kind of trying to beat them up to allow us to put it on the record.” This is the second Grammy Award for Alan who first took home the honor in 2002 for “Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning.” The Zac Brown Band won their first Grammy in 2009 for Best New Artist.
