Miriam Bryant has been a frequent visitor to the Grammy Awards over the years, but without winning.
Now the 31-year-old from Gothenburg was praised for the album "Ps I hate you" and the song "Tystnar i luren", a collaboration with Victor Leksell.
- Before the album award, I was very overwhelmed, and felt "names now I do not have time to cry, I have to go on stage and say thank you to lots of people".
But I am incredibly proud and happy, says Miriam Bryant to TT.
First Grammy
Benjamin Ingrosso took home the gala's heaviest prize - artist of the year, which is also the 24-year-old's first Grammy.
In 2021, he released the album "Once Upon a Time".
- It's great fun to get "recognition" for what you do and last year was a very hectic year for me.
I toiled hard, it's fun to get confirmation for that, says Benjamin Ingrosso.
He says he did not expect to hear his name called out as the winner.
- Not at all!
I did not even drink anything tonight because I was going to go home right after this.
I regret that I am not fuller than I am!
Aalegra pre-favorite
Together with Miriam Bryant, Snoh Aalegra was one of the big favorites before the gala, and had to go home with a statuette for this year's soul / r'n'b.
The third big favorite Agnes was awarded in the category of composer of the year, together with Vincent Pontare, Salem Al Fakir, Kerstin Ljungström and Maria Hazell.
