The Recording Academy is moving its annual live nominations concert special to Music City and the show will air Dec. 5 live on CBS from Bridgestone Arena. Its the fifth time The Recording Academy has held “The Grammy Nominations Concert Live,” but the first outside Los Angeles.
“There’s probably no city more renowned as a music center in America and probably the world than Nashville, Tenn.,” said Neil Portnow, president/CEO of The Recording Academy. “We have had a great experience with the city of Nashville as an organization.”
Nashville has a long history with the Grammys and is home to one of The Recording Academy’s oldest and most successful chapters. Many Grammy winners, from Taylor Swift and Lady Antebellum to The Black Keys and Kings of Leon and many more, call the city home.
