Silk Sonic

The duo got nominated for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and more for “Leave the Door Open”

Anderson .Paak and Bruno Mars made their TV debut as Silk Sonic at last year’s Grammys, performing “Leave the Door Open” after an extensive, joke-filled campaign to get on the show. They’re nominated for four awards this year thanks to “Leave the Door Open” from their debut album An Evening With Silk Sonic: Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best R&B Performance, and Best R&B Song. They also interpolated James Brown’s “Get On Up.” Watch it all go down below.

The Vegas-themed performance is fitting for the two artists who kicked off their An Evening with Silk Sonic residency in Vegas earlier this year. Together they performed a rousing, extended version of the song dedicated to Lady Luck and rollicking good times, Vegas-style. They also tipped to SoHo’s “Hot Music.” The Grammys are in Las Vegas this year — and Silk Sonic is paying homage to Sin City with their opening performance.

The song won best performance by a country duo or group Sunday afternoon. “I need to warn everybody, the next presenter is a comedian,” Burton said. And the Foo Fighters, who lost their drummer, Taylor Hawkins, just over a week ago are up for three Grammys. He noted that “Younger Me” was written in response to his coming out. Mars started the show imploring the Las Vegas crowd at the MGM Grand Arena to get up and dance. They sing to the wounded in hospitals, even to those who can’t hear them,” he said. “Fill the silence with your music. “What it ended up being was a safe space for black women to tell their stories.” But they, of course, not here due to the tragic passing of their legendary drummer, Taylor Hawkins.”
