The 64th Grammy Awards take place tonight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The event was initially set to take place in Los Angeles in January but was rescheduled due to the COVID-19 Omicron variant. Jon Batiste leads this year’s nominations with 11 nods, followed by Doja Cat, H.E.R., and Justin Bieber with eight nominations and Olivia Rodrigo and Billie Eilish with seven nominations each. ABBA, Arooj Aftab, Arlo Parks, Low, Japanese Breakfast, Selena Gomez, and soccer mommy are among this year’s first-time nominees. The Daily Show‘s Trevor Noah will host for the second year in a row.
Since last year’s Grammys, the Recording Academy made a number of changes to its selection process, including eliminating nearly all so-called ‘secret’ committees and establishing two new categories, Música Urbana Album and Global Music Performance. It’s also the first time the ceremony has an inclusion rider, with the Recording Academy having increased its voting body to include more voters from “traditionally underrepresented groups.”
Performs at this year’s ceremony include Olivia Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, Lil Nas X, Jack Harlow, Brandi Carlile, Jon Batiste, Silk Sonic, T.J. Trent, H.E.R., Chris Stapleton, and Brothers Osborn. Foo Fighters are no longer set to perform at this year’s awards following the tragic death of drummer Taylor Hawkins.
Most of the awards will be handed out during the Premiere Ceremony®, which begins at 3:30 p.m. EST. The main event will be broadcast at 8 p.m. EST on CBS and livestream on Paramount+.
Check out the full list of Grammy nominations below; this story will be updated live as the winners are announced.
