Music’s biggest night is just around the corner. The 68th Grammy Awards are represented by the Recording Academy of the United States to honor the best performers, songs, and albums in music of that year.
This year, the award show will have all of the Best New Artist Nominees performing together. This announcement comes just one day after Sabrina Carpenter was announced as the first performer for 2026.
