Music’s biggest night just got a little more exciting as the first set of performers were announced for the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards today (March 15).
The Recording Academy revealed in a statement that Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, BTS, Lil Nas X, Jack Harlow, Brothers Osborne, and Brandi Carlile are all confirmed to be taking the main stage at the MGM Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday, April 3rd.
To no surprise, each performer is nominated for multiple awards this year. BTS is up for “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance” for their hit song “Butter,” while seven-time Grammy winner Billie Eilish is up for another seven awards this year, including “Album of the Year” and “Record of the Year.”
While we’re not entirely sure what Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow will be performing, we feel that the duo will most likely bring their smash hit “Industry Baby” to the Grammys stage, as its nominated for “Best Melodic Rap Performance.” Lil Nas X is up for four other awards this year.
In the Country Music world, Brothers Osborne are nominated for two Grammys, including “Best County Duo/Group Performance” and “Best Country Album;” while folk artist and six-time Grammy Award-winner Brandi Carlile is nominated for “Record Of The Year,” “Song Of The Year,” “Song Of The Year,” “Best Pop Solo Performance,” and “Best American Roots Performance.”
