This year’s Grammy Awards, which were supposed to take place later this month, have been postponed. According to Rolling Stone, concerns over COVID-19 and travel led the Recording Academy to move the Jan. 31 date to sometime in March.
SPIN has reached out to the Recording Academy for a request for comment and further details on the postponement.
The Trevor Noah-hosted event was set to feature limited attendance similar to this year’s Emmys, but with Los Angeles currently the epicenter of the pandemic and the Grammys set to take place downtown, this seems like a wise move.
In the Grammy race, Beyoncé leads the pack with nine nominations while Dua Lipa, Taylor Swift and Roddy Ricch have six nominations apiece.
