2026 Grammys were an adventure as always. While the project I was nominated with didn’t win this year, I’m always grateful to be in the building and especially to be recognized again. It’s special to me to have this time every year to see so many friends and colleagues that mean so much to me. You all know hopefully know who you are. @allisoncharneyepstein you made an amazing album and I’m grateful you allowed me to be a part of it. You are a wonderful human. @christinagiacona@patrick_conlon_music@kittwakeley@bluehairben@tonycorrelli you all made me look good. Thank you and congrats on your accomplishments. Congrats to all the nominees and winners. Many of you are my friends and I’m so happy for you all. Thanks to my friends @therecordingacademy for putting on this massive spectacle. I have way too many pics to post, but here’s proof I was there. Let’s do it all again next year!

Thanks to so many people who reached out to me to say happy birthday. This year has been the most challenging of my life, but it’s you my friends that have lifted me up, inspired me, and carried me through.
