The Recording Academy has confirmed that SZA, the most nominated artist of the night, will be performing at the 2024 Grammy Awards main ceremony.
SZA leads the nominations in nine categories, including Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Album of the Year.
SZA Performing At The 2024 Grammy Awards
Billboard noted that this would be SZA's second time performing at the Grammy Awards. She first performed in 2016 when she was nominated for Best New Artist. She performed "Broken Clocks" from "Ctrl."
Every year, the nomination leader is invited to perform at the main ceremony. However, last year, Beyonce skipped the performance despite her bagging the most nominations.
SZA, who was also present last year, will be performing this year, presumably with songs from her smash album, "SOS."
SZA will be joining a roster of other artists at this year's Grammy Awards. Very recently, folk music icon Joni Mitchell will be performing for the first time at the Grammy Awards, despite being one of the most awarded female artists in history.
She will be joining Luke Combs, Burna Boy, Dua Lipa, Billie Eilish, Travis Scott, and Olivia Rodrigo as performers for the 2024 telecast.
Variety also reported that Billy Joel will also be performing for the 2024 Grammy Awards. Although he is not nominated for any awards this year, the singer who recently announced the end of his Madison Square Garden Residency, Joel will be performing his new song in 17 years.
U2 will also be performing at the 2024 Grammy Awards, but not in the same building. They announced that they would be performing from the Sphere in Las Vegas, where the band is currently holding their Las Vegas Residency.
