Zara Larsson's Grammy nomination shows that she is on her way to the big international breakthrough she has worked so hard for. The Swedish artist is nominated for the first time, with the song "Midnight Sun" competing in the category of best dance-pop song.
She will also perform during the pre-gala, which starts at 9:30 p.m. local time in Sweden.
Ludwig Göransson has collected a lot of awards for his film music - with four nominations for the music for the horror film "Sinners", he has a chance to expand his award collection tonight. Two of them are in the same category, best song written for film and television, where "I lied to you" and "Pale, pale moon" are competing against each other.
At most, he can receive three awards at the gala.
Ghost already has a Grammy. Now the Linköping band, fronted by Tobias Forge, can get another one. This time for the song "Lachryma", which is nominated in the category of best metal.
The fact that Bohuslän Big Band has been nominated for a Grammy is perhaps more unexpected. The band from the west coast, together with Danilo Pérez, has a chance to win an award in the category of best album performed by a big band.
Swedish songwriter Jonas Myrin is a hidden gem to most, but he's no newcomer to the Grammys. In 2012, he won the award for best contemporary Christian song. Tonight, he's hoping for another statuette, for the song "Church" with Tasha Cobbs Leonard and John Legend, which is competing in the best gospel category.
