Brittany Howard, HAIM To Play Pandora’s Pre-Grammy Event
The nominated artists will perform remotely during Pandora’s live ‘Countdown to the Grammy Awards’ broadcast.
Days ahead of the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards, Pandora is hosting its Live Countdown To the Grammys event, where nominees Brittany Howard, Haim, and CHIKA are all set to perform. The virtual event airs on Pandora’s website at 9:00 pm EST on March 11.
Recording Academy Chair and Interim President/CEO Harvey Mason Jr. will host the event and lead a roundtable discussion with all three acts. Each artist will participate remotely – with Haim and CHIKA performing from Los Angeles and Howard joining in from Nashville.
Viewers will have the opportunity to enjoy a variety of unique activities throughout the program, including posing in a red carpet-inspired photo booth, testing their musical knowledge in a pre-show trivia game, and connecting with other fans via an interactive chat feature. A limited number of artist merchandise will also be gifted to attendees on a first-come, first-served code redemption basis.
SiriusXM will offer a replay of the evening’s performances on The Grammy Channel (ch. 104) beginning at noon EST on March 13.
