Aimee Mann won the 2018 Best Folk Album award at the Grammy Awards on Sunday (Jan. 28), for her album Mental Illness. The honor was handed out during the Premiere Ceremony, which streamed online before the televised awards show.
Mentall Illness is Mann’s ninth studio album in an illustrious cross-genre career. With Mental Illness, Mann wanted to create the “saddest, slowest” album she could — and while she may have succeeded, she also made really catchy music in the process.
Other nominees for the Best Folk Album award at the 2018 Grammys were Semper Femina by Laura Marling, The Queen of Hearts by Offa Rex, You Don’t Own Me Anymore by the Secret Sisters and The Laughing Apple by Yusuf / Cat Stevens.
