\n\tThe Clive Davis<\/a> and Recording Academy\u2019s Pre-Grammy Gala will take place on Saturday, Feb. 6, 2027, at its longtime home of the Beverly Hilton, as always, the evening before the Grammy Awards. However, for the first time, the man himself will not physically be there, as Davis passed away on June 22<\/a> at the age of 94.<\/p>\n

\n\tBut he\u2019ll definitely be there in every other way. According to the announcement, the show is \u201cexpected to feature spectacular performances from major artists while honoring the life and legacy of the late Clive Davis, the four-time Grammy winner created the Pre-Grammy Gala in 1976 and partnered with the Recording Academy in 2009 to present the star-studded event.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tVariety wrote of \u201cthe Clive party\u201d in 2024: \u201cIt is truly fete like no other, a place where you can see Bey and Jay at one table and Barbra Streisand and Nancy Pelosi at the next, where you\u2019re seeing completely unique performances by some of the biggest stars in the world: Highlights we\u2019ve witnessed over the years include seeing Brandi Carlile sing \u2018A Case of You\u2019 to Joni Mitchell, Beck performing \u2018The Man Who Sold the World\u2019 with the surviving members of Nirvana, and Lionel Richie blowing the roof off the Beverly Hilton with a double shot of \u2018All Night Long\u2019 and \u2018Dancing on the Ceiling.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAdditional details will be released in the coming months.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cClive built this gala into something the entire music community looked forward to for five decades. He never did it for applause or recognition. He did it because he loved this community, believed in the power of music, and understood what it meant to bring us all together to celebrate it,\u201d said Harvey Mason jr., Grammys<\/a>\u00ae CEO. \u201cI was lucky to call Clive a friend and mentor, and working with him taught me so much. That\u2019s exactly the spirit he brought to the PreGrammy Gala and I know he\u2019d want nothing more than for the show to go on this year. It\u2019s our honor to celebrate the legacy he left behind.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Clive Davis and Recording Academy\u2019s Pre-Grammy Gala will take place on Saturday, Feb. 6, 2027, at its…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":624558,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[127506,156,21726,157,111,139,69],"class_list":["post-624557","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-clive-davis","tag-entertainment","tag-grammys","tag-music","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/624557","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=624557"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/624557\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/624558"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=624557"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=624557"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=624557"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
