The Recording Academy and MusiCares’ have launched a fundraiser for wildfire relief at musicares.org/firerelief. Joining that effort are the usual music stars who will take the stage on Grammy night. Here are the announced performers so far:

Six albums into her career, Carpenter finally received her first recognition from the Recording Academy. She’s up for six awards, including Album of the Year (Short n’ Sweet), Record of the Year (“Espresso”), Song of the Year (“Please Please Please”), and Best New Artist. She’s one of only 15 recording artists to receive those four nominations in a single year.
Charli XCX
Until now, the British pop star had flown under the Grammy radar. Her only previous nominations were Record of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance as a featured artist on Iggy Azalea‘s “Fancy.” But she broke through this year with the critically hailed Brat, which is vying for Album of the Year, while “360” earned her a nom for Record of the Year. In all, she’s up for eight awards.

The rapper’s breakthrough this year earned her three Grammy nominations: Best New Artist, Best Rap Performance for “Nissan Altima,” and Best Rap Album for Alligator Bites Never Heal.

Shakira
The legendary Latin star Shakira is up for Best Latin Pop Album this year for Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran. She has won this category twice before, for her MTV Unplugged set and El Dorado. She also won Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album for Fijación Oral Vol. 1. At the Latin Grammys, she has been even more successful, collecting 14 trophies over the course of her career.
Teddy Swims
The relative newcomer enjoyed a breakthrough year in 2024, which earned him a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist. He dominated the charts with his single “Lose Control,” which was named Billboard‘s No. 1 song of the year on the Hot 100 chart. But that song was released too early to qualify for this year’s awards.
