LOS ANGELES (AP) — Victoria Monét and Coco Jones brought smooth R&B and studied choreography, Noah Kahan and Gracie Abrams — friends up for the same Grammy — dueted their introspective folk, and Jelly Roll brought out Lainey Wilson. Ice Spice performed her new single from her forthcoming debut LP “Y2K.”

Those artists — save for Wilson — make up the bulk of the 2024 Grammys ' best new artist nominees and were the headliners of Spotify's annual pre-Grammy party, held Thursday at Paramount Studios.

The event spotlighted up-and-coming talent across genres, generations, and backgrounds. Each act ran through two-to-four songs, introducing themselves to an audience made up of new listeners and dedicated fans in seemingly equal measure. To hasten the transitions, the stage would rotate, revealing another backline and leaving the audience to guess who would emerge next.
