Congratulations to The Black Keys, Ambrose Akinmusire, John Adams, Timo Andres, Caroline Shaw, and Sō Percussion, all of whose works have been nominated for the 67th Grammy Awards. You can hear all of the nominated works below.

The Black Keys have been nominated for two Grammy Awards: Best Rock Performance and Best Rock Song for "Beautiful People (Stay High)," from their new album, Ohio Players. The song was written by Dan Auerbach, Patrick Carney, Beck, and Daniel Nakamura. The album features several collaborations between band mates Auerbach and Carney with various friends and colleagues, like Nakamura, Beck, Noel Gallagher, Greg Kurstin, and others. A two-LP, eighteen-track deluxe edition, Ohio Players (Trophy Edition), out next week, features four previously unreleased tracks in a gatefold jacket, with an alternate cover and new album sequencing. Special guests include DannyLux, Alice Cooper, and Beck, in addition to the many collaborations on the original Ohio Players songs.

Ambrose Akinmusire's Nonesuch debut album, Owl Song, has been nominated for Best Jazz Instrumental Album. The album features a trio with two musicians he has long admired, guitarist Bill Frisell and drummer Herlin Riley. Uncut exclaims: "This is subtly profound music, full of meditative, focused beauty." "A quiet rush of gorgeous sound where space, tone and beauty come together in one of the most impactful albums of 2023," says DownBeat. "This is one of the most interesting recordings to come along in a very long time by one of the most interesting artists of our time." Akinmusire won this year's DownBeat Critics Poll and JJA Jazz Awards for Trumpeter of the Year.

The first recording of composer John Adams's 2017 opera, Girls of the Golden West, has been nominated for two Grammys: Best Opera Recording and Best Engineered Album, Classical for engineers Alexander Lipay and Dmitriy Lipay, who is also up for Producer of the Year, Classical. Adams's eighth music theater work to be released by Nonesuch tells the story of the California Gold Rush not through familiar time-worn myth, but in the words and deeds of real people. Longtime Adams collaborator Peter Sellars drew from original sources from the era to create the libretto. The composer leads the LA Phil in this recording made in Disney Hall, with the Los Angeles Master Chorale led by Grant Gershon and a cast featuring Davóne Tines, Julia Bullock, Paul Appleby, Hye Jung Lee, Elliot Madore, Daniela Mack, and Ryan McKinny.

Timo Andres's The Blind Banister has also been nominated for Best Engineered Album, Classical, for engineers Silas Brown, Daron Schachter, and Michael Schwartz, and mastering engineer Matt Colton. The album comprises three works by the composer/pianist: the piano concerto The Blind Banister (a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in 2016), with Andres as soloist, and Upstate Obscura for chamber orchestra and cello, with soloist Inbal Segev—both of which feature Metropolis Ensemble and conductor Andrew Cyr—and the solo piano piece Colorful History, also performed by Andres.

Caroline Shaw and Sō Percussion's Rectangles and Circumstance has been nominated for Best Chamber Music / Small Ensemble Performance. The album comprises ten songs co-written and performed by the artists. Shaw and Sō's Eric Cha-Beach and Adam Sliwinski "sourced a group of nineteenth-century poems that shaped its expressive mode [and] ended up using verses by Christina Rosetti, Emily Brontë, Emily Dickinson, Gertrude Stein, and William Blake," says Sliwinski. "The lyrics on this album by members of the band contain wordplay that explores the same profound feelings explored by Blake and Dickinson.” Shaw and Sō co-produced the album with Grammy-winning engineer Jonathan Low (The National, Taylor Swift). Shaw's two Nonesuch albums with Attacca Quartet, Evergreen and Orange, previously won the Grammy for this category.

Congratulations as well to Rhiannon Giddens, who has been nominated for Best American Roots Performance for "The Ballad of Sally Anne," from the compilation album My Black Country: The Songs of Alice Randall, released on Oh Boy Records.
