Over the weekend, the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards took place in Las Vegas, Nevada, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. The event hosted some of the biggest names in music, and artists in the Christian genre like Natalie Grant, Kari Jobe, Cody Carnes, and Maverick City Music attended the ceremony.
The 2022 awards show had five Christian/Gospel categories, with nominees like Dante Bowe, Tauren Wells, CeCe Winans, and others. CeCe Winans took home three GRAMMYs, while Maverick City and Carrie Underwood each won one.
