AXS-TV previews Grammy Awards with special content

AXS TV gears up for the 64TH Annual GRAMMY® Awards with a multi-platform event featuring premiere performances, profiles, all-new exclusive digital content and more—airing across AXS TV’s linear channel, website, apps and social platforms from Monday, March 28 through Saturday, April 2.

The week-long block boasts a special Saturday Stack lineup honoring past winners and current nominees on April 2 starting at 12 p.m. ET, headlined by the Network premiere of the concert Foo Fighters: Live At Wembley Stadium at 8 p.m. ET. 

The film captures the 2022 Best Rock Album and Best Rock Performance nominees rocking 170,000 fans across two nights in 2008 at London’s historic venue, with hits such as “Times Like These,” “Learn To Fly,” “My Hero,” and “Everlong,” along with a pair of Led Zeppelin covers featuring surprise appearances by rock legends Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones.

Other Saturday Stack offerings include artist profiles featuring Rock Legends: Foo Fighters, The Real Taylor Swift: Wild Dreams, The Dolly Parton Story – From Rags To Rhinestones and Kanye: A Higher Power, and seven performances featuring Country music trailblazer Willie Nelson; Dolly Parton in the star-studded tribute Dolly Parton: 50 Years At The Opry, with Toby Keith, Emmylou Harris and Hank Williams Jr.; Coldplay – Live In São Paulo, and more.

The AXS TV website, apps, and social platforms present a selection of all-new digital exclusives airing daily throughout GRAMMY® Week, opening with back-to-back At Home And Social specials as host Katie Daryl sits down with indie folk heroes Fleet Foxes, whose album “Shore” is up for Best Alternative Music Album (Mar. 28); followed by an evening with beloved rock mainstays Blues Traveler, who are vying for Best Traditional Blues Album (Mar. 29). 

Next, multi-talented musician and producer Finneas—whose 2022 nominations include Record Of The Year, Song Of The Year, Best New Artist, and a pair of Album Of The Year nods—shares his personal music memorabilia on Rock & Tell (Mar. 30); and Katie Daryl chats with psychedelic superstars Black Pumas, nominees for Best Rock Album and Best Rock Performance, on At Home And Social (Mar. 31).
