The all-encompassing show will be packed with epic moments from the past 59 years of Grammy history, including new stories from the artists about how their Grammy performances came to be.
The unique broadcast event will feature rare archival footage, exclusive interviews, and special appearances by multi-Grammy winners and nominees Keith Urban, Blake Shelton, Underwood, Christina Aguilera, Mary J. Blige, Celine Dion, Dave Grohl, Elton John, Alicia Keys, Bruno Mars, Chris Martin, Ricky Martin, Paul McCartney, P!nk, Ed Sheeran, Bruce Springsteen, Sting, Justin Timberlake, and U2.
Special show segments will include reactions from Grammy producers and members of the music community following some legendary performances, including Paul McCartney bringing the Beatles’ legendary album, Abbey Road, to the Grammy stage.
Among the highlighted moments being recalled for the show are Blake Shelton’s appearance with Glen Campbell on The 54th Grammy Awards in 2012. “I have never felt more honored, proud, and nervous, and a sense of unexpected accomplishment,” said Shelton about the collaboration. “My first moment on that stage was with one of the greatest legends—not in country music—of the entertainment industry, period!”
