Multimedia Journalist The 63rd Grammy Awards take place this Sunday night in LA with Fontaines D.C. flying the flag for Ireland. However, aside from one obvious band, Irish acts have not won as many Grammys as you might think . . . You’ll often hear - quite correctly - that Ireland punches above its weight on the global music stage but when it comes to the Grammys, Irish acts have not fared as well as you might expect despite inspiring fervent fanbases and more importantly selling lots of records. Hozier: robbed by a sad Tellytubby in 2015 Which is weird considering the huge influence Ireland has had on some of America’s oldest forms of music, not to mention many other US institutions and traditions. Look, we’re not bitter, but what is wrong with you damned yankees? We built your country, you swines!
