We are 30 days into 2024 and award seasons is already in full swing. Over the last few weeks, we’ve covered the Jewish nominees at the 81st Golden Globes and the 75th Primetime Emmy awards. Now, it’s nearly time for the 66th Grammys.
This Sunday, Feb. 4 at 8pm ET, the 2024 Grammys, hosted by Trevor Noah, will air live on CBS. This year, the ceremony — which will honor the best the music industry had to offer between Oct. 1, 2022 to Sept. 15, 2023 — includes 94 different categories. Which, if you’re keeping track, is a lot. So instead of trying to list all of the Jewish nominees and inevitably missing someone, we’re listing all the biggest or most notable Jewish nominees. (Apologies to Jewish jazz musician Fred Hersch and others who didn’t make this list. We’re still rooting for you!)
So, for your reading pleasure, here are all the biggest Jewish nominees at the 66th Grammy awards! (Note: in categories where there are multiple nominees per entry, the Jewish nominee is bolded.)
