The 55th Annual Grammy Awards will be held on Sun., Feb. 10 in Los Angeles at the Staple Center. The show will be broadcast on CBS Television starting at 8:00 p.m. ET/delayed PT. Taylor Swift will open the show with her Record of the Year nominated song, "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together."
For the most part, country music isn't a huge part of the Grammy Awards, which are for all genres of music. The voting is done by artists from all genres of music, so it's harder to predict how people outside the country music genre will vote in country categories. I'll do my best to predict who I think will win in the main categories that have a country artist nominated in them.
