Carney kid gets another Grammy nomination

The Black Keys, a music duo that includes BJ reporter Jim Carney's son, Patrick, got another Grammy nomination.

The Black Keys received a nomination for best pop duo or group perfomance for their cover of Buddy Holly’s “Dearest.” The song was featured on the covers compilation album, "Rave On Buddy Holly." The Keys have been nominated for six Grammy Awards in their career and have won three.

The 54th Grammys will be held Feb. 12 in Los Angeles.

Last year drummer Patrick Carney and singer/guitarist Dan Auerbach, who began their partnership while at Firestone High when they lived around the corner from each other, won Grammys for best alternative music album ("Brothers"), best rock performance by a duo or group with vocals (the single "Tighten Up"). Carney’s brother, Michael Carney, won for best recording package for his art direction on "Brothers."

The Black Keys have performed on NBC's "Saturday Night Live" and appeared on Comedy Central cable channel's "Colbert Report." Pat and Dan live in Nashville.

Jim Carney's wife, BJ reporter Katie Byard, is the Carney Grammy-winners' stepmom.
