The 2025 GRAMMY nominations are in, and they include 24 artists who have performed free concerts in Levitt communities coast to coast!
We are thrilled to congratulate the 2025 nominees, some of whom have already won GRAMMY Awards in previous years, and celebrate their exceptional artistry. These singers, songwriters, and instrumentalists represent the wide range of creativity, talent, and impact across Levitt stages—landing nominations across 21 unique categories, from R&B and pop to bluegrass and jazz.
In the Best Children’s Album category, three out of the five nominees have headlined Levitt family shows across the country: Divinity Roxx and the Divi Roxx Kids, Lucy Kalantari and the Jazz Cats, and Lucky Diaz and the Family Jam Band. Muni Long leads the R&B categories with four nominations (last year, the singer-songwriter took home the award for Best R&B performance, and has the chance to win again in 2025 with a live rendition of her hit song “Made for Me”).
It’s also an exciting year for first time GRAMMY nominees across genres, including American Patchwork Quartet, Kiki Valera, Lake Street Dive, and Sierra Ferrell.
Check out the full list of nominated artists who have performed on Levitt stages below, and tune into the 67th GRAMMY Awards on Sunday, February 2!
