Music Lovers Rejoice – It’s the Grammy Awards!

Grammy Awards Number Plates

The Grammy Awards is perhaps the most exciting day of the year for anyone in the music industry, and fans alike. This year the awards are being held in Los Angeles, and will be broadcast live across the US from the Staples Center. It might come off of as a little bummer to some people because the date of the awards collides with the Nashville concert schedule. The coverage starts at 8pm over in the States, and here in the UK you can watch the red carpet coverage on E! between 11pm Sunday to 1am Monday morning. Unfortunately the awards won’t be broadcast live in the UK, but you can watch the highlights on 4Music at 7.30pm on Monday. The show this year will be hosted by Alicia Keys, who is no stranger to the Grammy Awards, having won a massive 15 awards herself.

The nominations

With the most nominations are Kendrik Lamar, nominated for 8 awards and Drake who has been nominated for 7 awards. Also in the running to win multiple Grammy Awards are Childish Gambino, Lady Gaga and Cardi B. With 84 categories from Gospel to Reggae it’s certainly going to be an interesting and entertaining event.

The performers

No music award ceremony is complete without lots of great live performances, and the Grammys this year offer up plenty of great treats including Camila Cabello, Cardi B, Janelle Monáe, Brandi Carlile, Dan + Shay, H.E.R., Post Malone and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Miley Cyrus, Shawn Mendes,  and Kacey Musgraves.
