Alicia Keys, The Weeknd, Dave Grohl, Daft Punk & More to Create “Grammy Moments”

1041

PRNewsFoto/The Recording AcademyThe Grammy Awards telecast is famous for its signature “Grammy Moments” team-ups, which feature team-ups of artists who normally don’t perform together.  This year’s telecast, airing February 12, is no different.

Alicia Keys will team up with Best New Artist nominee, country star Maren Morris, to perform.  The two previously collaborated on an episode of Country Music Television’s Crossroads program. 

In addition, legendary hip-hop group A Tribe Called Quest will perform with Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl and Best New Artist nominee Anderson .Paak.  In addition, The Weeknd will perform with Daft Punk, the French electronic duo with whom he collaborated on his hit single “Starboy.”

While The Weeknd’s album came out to late in the year for Grammy consideration, he is nominated this year for his contribution to Beyonce’s nominated album Lemonade.

Those artists will join previously announced performers Adele, John Legend, Bruno Mars, Metallica, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban on the telecast, which will be hosted by James Corden live from the STAPLES center in Los Angeles.
