On the PopShop Podcast GRAMMYs preview, NorahJones is our special guest! She discusses her full-circle Grammy history, from her 2003 sweep through her 2022 nomination.
At the 64th annual Grammys — airing live from Las Vegas this Sunday — Jones is nominated once again, with her up for best traditional pop vocal album. In a time when fans and musicians alike were deprived of live music, Jones and producer/engineer Jamie Landry listened back to recordings of her concerts around the world, and the musician found herself drawn to the audience she desperately missed playing for.
She’s now a nine-time winner and 18-time nominee, but there’s one photo fans are most likely to associate with Jones and her almost two-decade history with the Recording Academy: the singer juggling five golden gramophones at her first awards ceremony. “There was another photo of me dropping one because I couldn’t keep them all in my arms,” she laughs. “They’re heavy! You don’t want that on your toe.
“When the label was like, ‘It’s gonna be 20 years! You need to do something special!’ I was like, ‘Well, only if we have something special to do. I’m not gonna do it just to do it,'” she says. “And then once we started really getting into it, I couldn’t believe how much special stuff there was. I was so excited about it.”
