Grammy Preview: Recap of Nominations, Performances

February 7, 2013/by Sarah Skates

urlThe 55th annual Grammy® Awards will be presented at the Los Angeles Staples Center on Sunday night (Feb. 10), airing live at 7 PM/CT on CBS.
The most recently announced performance is a Levon Helm tribute that will include Zac Brown, Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes, Elton John, Mumford & Sons and Mavis Staples. Previously announced performers for the star-packed awards show include Dierks Bentley and Miranda Lambert, Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, The Black Keys, Kelly Clarkson, FUN., the Lumineers, Mumford & Sons, Frank Ocean, Rihanna, Jack White, Elton John and Ed Sheeran, Alicia Keys and Maroon 5, Bruno Mars, Sting and Justin Timberlake.
Going into the show with three nods each are Nashvillians Swift, Clarkson, White, Hunter Hayes, and Mark Hall of Casting Crowns. Country stars with two nominations apiece are Eric Church, Ronnie Dunn, and The Time Jumpers, which includes perennial Grammy darling Vince Gill. Nashville based rocker Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys earned six nominations, tying for the lead with five other stellar acts.
Since 2009, Nashville has been on a Grammy winning streak, started by the acclaimed Alison Krauss and Robert Plant collaboration which was that year’s top winner. In 2010, Swift racked up the most trophies and in 2011 Lady Antebellum followed suit. Last year, Adele dominated, but Nashville was well-represented with wins by Swift, Lady A, Alison Krauss and Union Station, and The Civil Wars.
