I was today years old when I learned that the Bay State can add Tracy Chapman to our long list of Grammy winners.
Did you know that the “Fast Car” artist graduated from Tufts University in 1987? She then went on to win Best New Artist, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for “Fast Car,” and Best Contemporary Folk Album for “Tracy Chapman” at the 1989 Grammy Awards.
