On Sunday (Feb. 2), the 67th Annual Grammy Awards will feature a series of special performances, including a tribute to Grammy legend Quincy Jones’ life and legacy.
Tributes to the spirit of Los Angeles, which is starting the long process of rebuilding after devastating wildfires, and the annual In Memoriam segment.
These portions will feature newly announced singers Brad Paisley, Brittany Howard, Coldplay’s Chris Martin, current Oscar nominee Cynthia Erivo, Herbie Hancock, Jacob Collier, Janelle Monáe, John Legend, Lainey Wilson, Sheryl Crow, St. Vincent, and Stevie Wonder.
Jones, who died in November at the age of 91, received 28 Grammy Awards spanning six decades, from the 1960s to the 2010s. He was a friend and mentor to generations of outstanding artists, such as Hancock, Wonder, Legend, and Collier. He received nearly every Recording Academy award, including the trustees honor in 1989 and the Grammy Legend Award in 1992.

As previously announced, this year’s Grammy telecast will have a dual purpose: generating additional dollars to support Los Angeles wildfire relief efforts while also honoring first responders’ bravery and dedication. Since initiating the Los Angeles Fire Relief Effort to Support Music Professionals last week, the Recording Academy and MusiCares have raised and donated almost $4 million in emergency aid to musicians impacted by the wildfires.
