Our congratulations go out to South African flutist Wouter Kellerman, a Sheer Publishing client, who has been nominated for a Grammy Award in the category ‘Best New Age Album’ for his album ‘Winds Of Samsara’ a collaboration with composer and music producer Ricky Kej.
Nominations for the 57th Annual GRAMMY Awards® were announced this week by The Recording Academy® and reflected an eclectic mix of the best and brightest in music over the past year, as determined by The Academy’s voting members. The 57th Annual GRAMMY Awards will be held on February 8, 2015, at the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles and broadcast live around the world.
2014 has been a very busy, but great year for Kellerman with ‘Winds Of Samsara’, a collaboration with Indian composer Ricky Kej, which was also nominated for two HMMA (Hollywood In Media Awards), debuting at Number 1 on the US Billboard charts, and spending another 11 weeks in the Top 10.
The album has also received much airplay and reached the number 1 spot on the ZMR Radio charts. Touring has also been extensive and Kellerman has played over 20 cities in the USA including performing to a sold-out Carnegie hall in October and also performing at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles. He heads off late December to tour Australia including shows at the Woodford Folk Festival and Globe to Globe festival in Melbourne.
