To be acknowledged with the first ever Bluegrass Golden Guitar [in this category] and have it presented by my longtime friend and producer, Jerry Salley, just made it that bit more special. We have made history! I can’t thank the industry here at home enough for their ongoing support, and my label Pisgah Ridge for believing in me and making this album with us” – Kristy Cox
