St. Vincent Wins Best Alternative Album at the Grammys
St. Vincent scored her third career Grammy at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards on April 3. The “Candy Darling” singer beat out other incredible nominees, Halsey, Fleet Foxes, Japanese Breakfast, and Arlo Parks.
Congratulations are in order for St. Vincent. Annie Clark, who uses the stage name St. Vincent, picked up her third trophy and second for Best Alternative Music Album in her career. Her sixth studio album, Daddy’s Home, won the award over If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power (Halsey), Jubilee (Japanese Breakfast), Collapsed in Sunbeams (Arlo Parks), and Shore (Fleet Foxes). Fiona Apple was last year’s winner for the incredible Fetch the Bolt Cutters.

St. Vincent won her first Grammy in 2015, winning Best Alternative Album for her self-titled St. Vincent. Her second Grammy came at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards in 2019, winning Best Rock Song from her fifth studio album, MASSEDUCTION. The 61st Annual Grammy Awards were memorable for her performance alongside Dua Lipa, singing a mash-up of “Masseduction” and “One Kiss.”

Daddy’s Home, released in May 2021, romanticizes the 1970s period in downtown New York. In addition, the singer channels the psychedelia of the ’70s with standout songs such as “The Melting Of The Sun” and “Live In The Dream.” The record has fusions of funk, soul, and rock.
She described her new sound when she spoke to The New Cue as “the sound of being out and Downtown in New York, 1973. Glamour that hasn’t slept in three days.” The image shows St. Vincent in full glamour, wearing a green-colored shirt, donning a blonde bob, and manipulating the sound of various instruments.
The visionary multi-music-tasker Annie Clark spills as many beans as allowed about St Vincent’s “fluid and wiggly” forthcoming album. “It’s the sound of being down and out Downtown in New York, 1973.” pic.twitter.com/6ZV5yGR4Yz
