The 67th Annual Grammy Awards celebrated the biggest names in music on February 2, 2025, in Los Angeles. The night was filled with historic wins, emotional speeches, and electrifying performances, despite the challenges posed by the Los Angeles wildfires. The ceremony highlighted the resilience of the city and honored first responders, with host Trevor Noah dedicating his opening speech to those affected by the disaster.
Beyoncé, who led the nominations with 11 wins for her album Cowboy Carter, kicked off the night with an early win alongside Miley Cyrus for Best Country Duo or Group Performance. She later made history by winning Album of the Year and Best Country Album, cementing her legacy as the most awarded artist in Grammy history. Other top contenders for Album of the Year included Taylor Swift (The Tortured Poets Department) and Billie Eilish (Hit Me Hard and Soft). Indian-American vocalist Chandrika Tandon won the Grammy Award for Best New Age, Ambient, or Chant Album for her album Triveni, triumphing over nominees such as Ricky Kej and Anoushka Shankar. She shared this prestigious honor with her collaborators—South African flautist Wouter Kellerman and Japanese cellist Eru Matsumoto.
During the event ‘In Memoriam’ segment was a deeply emotional moment as the music industry honored the legendary artists who passed away in the past year. Chris Martin, the frontman of Coldplay, led the tribute with a heartfelt performance, paying respects to the icons who left a lasting impact on the world of music. The screen behind him displayed a montage of late artists, producers, and industry professionals, reminding the audience of their contributions to music, whose legacies continue to inspire musicians and fans alike. The emotional tribute was met with a standing ovation, as artists, fans, and industry members reflected on the profound loss of musical talent over the past year.
