King Of Leon's Nathan Followill Admits Grammy Win Was A Dream Come True

February 2, 2010

Kings of Leon drummer Nathan Followill has spoken of his delight at the group's double success at the Grammy Awards on Sunday.

The US band were the surprise winners of the Record Of The Year prize for 'Use Somebody', beating the likes of Lady GaGa and Beyonce.

They also took home the award for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals.

Writing on Twitter, Followill said: “I had 2 pinch my Grammy this morning to make sure I wasn't dreaming.”

The drummer went on to describe the ceremony as a “great night” and appeared to confirm reports the band had partied hard after their win.

“What a great night and yes I got a little drunk but 4 a good cause,” he wrote.
