Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber, and more.&nbsp;

The performer list for the 2026 <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/celebrities-red-carpet-grammys-2025" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Grammy Awards</a> is starting to take shape, and so far, it&rsquo;s signaling a night that&rsquo;s far more about keeping up the hype and momentum. The Recording Academy has announced its first wave of performers, and the lineup leans heavily into artists who&rsquo;ve dominated the past year online, on the charts, and across playlists.
Leading the pack is <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/sabrina-carpenter-madison-square-garden-tickets-dates-bodysuits" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sabrina Carpenter</a>, whose recent run has firmly cemented her It girl status. After a year packed with viral hits and sold-out shows, her <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/beyonce-schiaparelli-dress-wardrobe-malfunction-country-album-win-grammys-2025" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Grammys</a> performance feels more like a victory lap. Also stepping onto the Grammys stage is former TikTok star-turned-pop star Addison Rae, whose transition from influencer to full-fledged singing act continues to surprise skeptics (and draw massive attention).&nbsp;
Most recently, it was announced that Justin Bieber will take the stage at the Grammys. After largely stepping back from live performances in recent years, the Swag era marks a return to form&mdash;and a full-circle moment as he reclaims one of music&rsquo;s biggest stages.
The lineup also highlights the growing global and alternative presence. Kateseye brings their international appeal to the stage, while UK singer Lola Young and soul-inflected new standout <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/olivia-dean-tour-2026-dates-tickets-ticketmaster-art-of-loving-tour-setlist" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olivia Dean</a> add even more newness and Gen Z stars to the lineup.&nbsp;
Indie fans aren&rsquo;t left out either. The Mar&iacute;as are set to deliver their signature dreamy sound, joined by Leon Thomas, whose slow-burning rise in R&amp;B has been impossible to ignore. Rising names <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/sombr-musician-songs-real-name-tour" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sombr</a> and Alex Warren round out the list, pointing to the Grammys&rsquo; continued effort to spotlight the next wave.
More performers are expected to be announced soon&mdash;but for now, the message is clear: the 2026 Grammys are betting on what&rsquo;s current, buzzy, and culturally unavoidable.
