During one more stop on his way to the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame, vegan percussionist for Zappa Plays Zappa, Billy Hulting, took home his first golden Grammy award Sunday night. Hulting and fellow band members—Steve Vai and Napoleon Murphy Brock, among others—outplayed prominent peers like Metallica and Nine-Inch Nails in the “Best Rock Instrumental Performance” category. Zappa Plays Zappa clenched the hard-earned accolade for their unparalleled performance of “Peaches En Regalia.” Check out VegNews.com’s Buzz feature to learn more about this meat-free musician in our pre-Grammy interview.
