2022 Grammy Winners: The Complete List

It’s just about time for the 64th Grammy Awards, and though the main show takes place tonight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, featuring returning 2021 host Trevor Noah, the Recording Academy is gearing up to announce its first wave of winners at this very moment. The online-only Grammy Premiere Ceremony, scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET, is hosted by LeVar Burton, and will feature a multi-nominee performance from Madison Cunningham, Falu, Nnenna Freelon, Kalani Pe’a, John Popper and The Isaacs, as well as performances by current nominees Jimmie Allen, Ledisi, Mon Laferte, Allison Russell and Curtis Stewart. Current nominees Allen, Arlo Parks, Nate Bargatze, Nnenna Freelon, Pierce Freelon and Sylvan Esso, as well as former Chair of the Recording Academy Board of Trustees Jimmy Jam, will present the day’s first awards, a whopping 70 of which will be announced ahead of the main show.

We’ll be keeping an eye on results all afternoon and evening long, updating this post with winners as they are announced, both at the Premiere Ceremony and the show proper, which doesn’t start until 8 p.m. ET, airing live on CBS, and streaming live and on demand via Paramount+.
