For a fourth consecutive year, the Grammy Awards will be held in Los Angeles February 27 at the Staples Center and air on CBS-TV. New York City played host to the ceremony in 1994, 1997 and 1998, but a widely publicized riff between NARAS President/CEO Michael Green and Big Apple mayor Rudolph Giuliani has kept the Grammys on the West Coast since 1999.
Nominees will be announced in January.
