The Grammy Awards celebrate the recording industry and artists’ accomplishments throughout the years. The 2024 ceremony will mark the 66th annual Grammy Awards. The Record of the Year award recognizes art and technical development in production in the recording industry. This year’s eight Grammy nominees for the Record of the Year category are “Flowers” by

Winning Eurovision, playing multiple sold-out shows around the world and being nominated for a Grammy Award would be a dream for any group of people in their early 20s — but for Italian rock band Maneskin, it’s a reality. Damiano David (lead vocals), Thomas Raggi (guitar), Ethan Torchio (drums) and Victoria De Angelis (bass) rose

One of the most anticipated events of the award show season is the Grammys, which nominates and awards musical and spoken-word artists for their outstanding achievements in the previous year. Or, so they say. For an artist, it is, no doubt, an honor to even be nominated for a Grammy. Many of my favorite artists

The 63rd annual Grammy Awards took place Sunday night, and if you weren’t paying attention — or just don’t care — it was easy to miss them. In a strange year for music devoid of any blockbuster moments, the Grammys didn’t have much draw. On top of that, the award show, like many other award

The 2020 Grammy Awards took place on Jan. 26 shortly after the death of basketball player Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna in a helicopter crash that occurred in Calabasas, California. Lizzo opened the ceremony in a beautiful glittery black dress with a set consisting of “Cuz I Love You” followed by “Truth Hurts.” Both

There are seven Harry Potter books. There are now seven Taylor Swift albums. Coincidence? I think not. Swift released “Lover” on Aug. 23. It may be her most mature album yet, loaded with 18 songs that return to what Swift herself calls “confessional writing.” Though “Lover” rivals “reputation” in everything from complete opposite color schemes

In a time (post-“Despacito,” or P.D.) when hip-hop, rap and latin trap dominate streaming services, Ariana Grande has been the only capitol-P pop star to truly make a splash. Last August, Grande released “Sweetener,” an outward, pure-pop commentary on how she dealt with the past year of her life — a year plagued with difficult

As with many indie rock artists, you can run into some pretty intense contrasts with Mac DeMarco. His debut album, “Rock and Roll Night Club” shows off his bizarre ability to not take anything seriously. A radio DJ with a very warped voice named Dojo Dan leads you through the album — from the nonsensical

Arlie, the band, came together on Vanderbilt campus in 2016. Their early singles “big fat mouth” and “didya think” gained traction on Spotify’s curated indie playlists. And now, to much anticipation, the band has released its first EP. They call it “Wait.” There’s something very “Vampire Weekend” about Arlie’s “Wait.” A band of recent college

Animal Collective’s new album kicked off with a pre-release of its first track, “Haircutter,” on the 16th of July this summer. One painfully long month later, their new album “Tangerine Reef” was released in full. I remember the night it dropped; I immediately went to bed to begin listening to the album. To my surprise,
