Trevor Noah returns to host the marquee show for a fourth consecutive year.

Check out the full Premiere Ceremony winners list below and stay tuned as more winners are revealed in primetime.

SZA comes into the night with a leading nine Grammy Award nominations including for Record, Album and Song of the Year for “Kill Bill” and SOS. Phoebe Bridgers, Serban Ghenea and Victoria Monét have seven noms apiece, while Jack Antonoff, Jon Batiste, boygenius, Brandy Clark, Miley Cyrus, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift have six apiece.

SZA and Bridgers together won the day’s first Grammy, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, for their “Ghost in the Machine,” while SZA picked up a second win for Best Progressive R&B Album. Also in the pre-show, two acts took home three Grammys: boygenius, which won for Best Rock Song and Best Rock Performance for “Not Strong Enough” and Best Alternative Music Album for The Record; and Killer Mike, who swept the Rap categories — Performance, Song and Album — for the single “Scientists & Engineers” and the album Michael.

The Barbie movie, up for 11 Grammys tonight, won early for its Soundtrack and Best Song Written for Visual Media for Billie Eilish O’Connell & Finneas O’Connell’s “What Was I Made For?” Other double winners in the pre-show included Monét, Chris Stapleton and Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit.

Composer Ludwig Göransson won the Score Grammy for Oppenheimer, while John Williams won his 26th Grammy for Best Instrumental Competition for “Helena’s Theme” from Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.

Dave Chappelle also won today for Comedy Album, while Michelle Obama for narrating her audio book The Light We Carry: Overcoming In Uncertain Times.

Back to Swift, who dominated 2023 with her Eras Tour concerts and movie and at one time had five albums in the Billboard Top 10 at the same time. She is nominated tonight for Album of the Year (Midnights) and Song of the Year (“Anti-Hero”) and Record of the Year. She is one of six to land noms in each of the three marquee categories along with SZA, Batiste, Cyrus and Rodrigo.

Tonight’s performers lineup in the main show includes SZA, Eilish, Dua Lipa, Rodrigo, Billy Joel, Burna Boy, Luke Combs and Travis Scott. Joni Mitchell is also set to make her Grammy-show performing debut, and U2 will pipe in to play live from Sphere in Las Vegas.
