With 2021 Grammys right around the corner, the Recording Academy has announced the line up of artists set to perform at the music’s biggest night.
The artists set to perform on the 63rd annual Grammy Awards on March 14 include Dua Lipa, Taylor Swift and Roddy Rich, who were among the year’s top nominees, with six nominations each. Beyonce with the highest number of nominations hasn’t been slated to perform at the ceremony.
Other performers set for Music’s Biggest Night are Bad Bunny, Black Pumas, Cardi B, BTS, Brandi Carlile, DaBaby, Doja Cat, Billie Eilish, Mickey Guyton, Haim, Brittany Howard, Miranda Lambert, Lil Baby, Chris Martin, John Mayer, Megan Thee Stallion, Maren Morris, Post Malone and Harry Styles, as reported by Billboard.
Hosted by Trevor Noah, the ceremony will be held at the Los Angeles Convention Center and its surroundings. All performances will be held from there, though the Grammys will make use of other venues for the reading of nominations and announcement of winners in various categories. “Artists will be coming together, while still safely apart, to play music for each other as a community and celebrate the music that unites us all,” according to the announcement. The audience will be limited to performers, nominees and a small number of their guests.
In an interview with Variety, first-time Grammy executive producer Ben Winston said some performances will be pre-recorded. “We’ve designed a set that you could argue makes it an even more exciting show,” Winston says. “The performers and nominees are each other’s audience, so it’s a room of incredible musicians, all safely distanced from each other, and every 45 minutes a new four groups come in and the [previous] four go out.”
