For the first time in the Grammys’ history, all the nominations for the ‘Best Rock Performance’ category are helmed by women or women fronted bands. Here are your nominees:

 

Fiona Apple / “Shameika”

 

Big Thief / “Not”

 

 

Phoebe Bridgers / “Kyoto”

 

 

Haim / “The Steps”

 

 

Brittany Howard / “Stay High”

 

Grace Potter / “Daylight”

 

Also getting dominated by women is the ‘Best Rock Song’ category, with Fiona Apple, Big Thief, Phoebe Bridgers and Brittany Howard getting more nominations alongside Tame Impala- the sole male performer in the category. You can check out a full list of nominations in the Rock and Metal categories HERE.

 

 

You could say that these aren’t traditional hard rock songs in these categories, with the Grammys deciding not too long ago to expand their scope to include Indie pop/Alternative and Folk rock. The 63rd (virtual) Grammy celebration will be held on January 31st, 2021. Your host will be Trevor Noah from The Daily Show and will air at 8PM ET / 5PM PT on CBS.
