- Album of the Year win came as a surprise
The 2022 Grammys took place at the MGM Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday, and they were certainly a night to remember! Hosted by Trevor Noah, the awards show celebrated some of the most notable musical releases from the past year. While the Foo Fighters were unable to be present following the death of bandmate Taylor Hawkins, the group won multiple Grammys.
"drivers license" superstar Olivia Rodrigo also picked up several Grammys, including Best New Artist. Album of the Year was perhaps the most surprising award of the evening, with Jon Batiste winning in a category that included Rodrigo and other heavy-hitters. He also took home three more awards!
