Dap-Kings Flying to L.A. for Winehouse Grammy Performance

Despite Amy Winehouse's personal turmoil, the Grammy-nominated soulstress might actually make an appearance in Los Angeles for music's biggest night. While word on the street suggests that Winehouse will be a no-show at the February 10 ceremony due to visa troubles, members of the Dap-Kings band are still planning to make their way West for the performance.

"Where it stands now is we are booked to play with her," Dap-King member Tommy Brenneck tells Spinner. "She's bailed on us before so it wouldn't be a surprise, but I'm hoping for the best. Also, because [Mark] Ronson is trying to put that after party together with everyone: the Dap-Kings -- with both Amy and Sharon Jones -- the Budos Band with Wale and the Menahan Street Band with Jay-Z. Let's just hope the Grammys don't get canceled because of the writers' strike."
