-BEST POP VOCAL ALBUM

-BEST ENGINEERED ALBUM (Non-Classical)

The album is some of my best work. It’s such a great honor to be recognized along with all the heavy hitters. But it’s going to take a lot of votes to get recognized in that field. So, I need your support. I want to ask all of you who are NARAS members to please consider me in your Grammy voting. Please check the ballot carefully and, if you think our work is worthy, vote in all categories in which we’re listed for round one (the nomination round) of the voting process. This will help increase our chances of being nominated.

First round voting ends October 31st.

Once the nominees are announced on December 5th, a new ballot will go out, and a Final Round of voting for the winner of each category will take place December 13, 2018 – January 9, 2019. The final winners will be announced at the Grammy Awards on February 10, 2019. 

If you have friends or colleagues who are voting members of the recording academy, please help me spread the word and ask them to check out my album.
