"The Civil Wars have claimed that Adele&amp;#039;s Grammy performance highlighted real musical talent. The duo - consisting of John Paul White and Joy Williams - toured with the &amp;#039;Rumour Has It&amp;#039; star last year and revealed that everybody in the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Sunday (February 12) was anticipating her performance.  Speaking about Adele&amp;#039;s six Grammy wins, Williams told Digital Spy: &amp;quot;It was no surprise for any of us that that was going to be a remarkable night for Adele.  &amp;quot;Nobody was cheering more loudly than John Paul and I were for her. Everybody was rooting for her and it was lovely to be able to catch up backstage.&amp;quot; Talking about Adele&amp;#039;s performance of &amp;#039;Rolling In The Deep&amp;#039;, White added: &amp;quot;I think that&amp;#039;s what everyone was waiting for; to hear her.  &amp;quot;The beauty of her standing on stage with just her band and a total lack of bells and whistles and production really highlighted just how great a singer she really is. &amp;quot;If the music is great you don&amp;#039;t need it. It&amp;#039;s all about the ears and not the eyes to paraphrase her.&amp;quot;  The Civil Wars also walked away with two Grammy Awards - &amp;#039;Best Country Duo/Group Performance&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;Best Folk Album&amp;#039; for their debut record Barton Hollow. Commenting on the wins, White explained: &amp;quot;It feels like it was an out-of-body experience. I keep wondering if it actually happened as I&amp;#039;m back home emptying the trash and cleaning the bathroom!&amp;quot; Williams added: &amp;quot;I think it might hit us a little bit more when they arrive. You get the Grammy handed to you, but they&amp;#039;ve not actually been inscribed.  &amp;quot;So the win is a total high and then as soon as you turn the corner it&amp;#039;s taken off ready to be given to the next presenter. We&amp;#039;re not complaining and we&amp;#039;re glad to have a few coming in the mail soon!&amp;quot; The Civil Wars will return to the UK in March for a headline tour, which will start at Birmingham&amp;#039;s HMV Institute. Tickets for the shows are on sale now. Watch the music video for The Civil Wars&amp;#039; hit &amp;#039;Barton Hollow&amp;#039; below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
