The nominees for the 2020 Grammy Awards have been announced

The nominees for the 2020 Grammy Awards have been announced, with special congratulations to the Radio 104.5 artists nominated including Vampire Weekend, The 1975, Thom Yorke....though 'Alternative' music tends to be shunned &/or misrepresented with the Grammys which have a reputation for being heavily influenced by the politics of the music biz! With that said, it's still quite an honor to be nominated! The awards will be handed out on January 26th at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Here are several of the nominations.
