A little bit country, a little bit rock ‘n’ roll — denim lived up to its versatile reputation on the likes of Ryan Adams, Dave Grohl and Blake Shelton. These three stars prove that award show style doesn’t always have to abide by the formalwear rules.

Staying true to their roots, the denim duds displayed by this trio of musicians ranged from head-to-toe jeanswear to just a bit of relaxed style mixed with formal flair.
The nominee for Best Rock Performance for his song “Gimme Something Good” wore his sunglasses at night, with Adams choosing pink frames to cover his peepers and committing fully to the Canadian tuxedo trend with denim on top and bottom.
Meanwhile, Foo Fighters frontman Grohl left the traditional glamour to his wife, choosing a jean jacket to top off his black pants, black T-shirt and sneaker ensemble.

Speaking of supportive husbands, Shelton pulled off a business up top, party on the bottom look, pairing a comfy pair of jeans with a dark gray vest and black suit jacket.
Just because you’re a famous musician doesn’t mean you should leave your denim duds at home, people. You’ve just gotta be cool enough to pull it off.
