Noah Kahan announced his musical return with his fourth studio album under the same name. The album, out April 24, explores nostalgia, guilt, and the feelings we try desperately to hide, refusing to speak out loud. The reference to the "great divide," in this instance, is that of an emotional drift. As an adult, Kahan can understand that his old acquaintance was severely depressed and struggling with a sense of identity, video has been shot by Director: Parker Schmidt
At the ceremony at Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena tonight, the band picked up two prizes – Best Alternative Music Album and Best Alternative Music Performance, the latter for ‘Alone’.
They had only previously been nominated for two Grammys in their career, both in the Best Alternative Music Album category – in 1993 for ‘Wish’ and in 2001 for ‘Bloodflowers’, but were unsuccessful on both occasions.
They were not on hand to accept their awards, as they were attending the funeral of their long-time guitarist and keyboardist Perry Bamonte, who died in December at the age of 65. They did, however, send a speech that was read from the stage, in which frontman Robert Smith said: “Simon, Jason, Roger, Reeves and I would like to thank the Grammys for this wonderful award, we are very honoured to receive it.”“We would also like to thank everyone who helped in the creation of our ‘Songs Of A Lost World’ album, particularly co-producer Paul Corkett, everyone in the Universal Music Group who worked so hard to get our ‘Lost World’ found, everyone in our mostly indefatigable crew…and most importantly, all of the Cure fans around the world, who came to our ‘Lost World’ shows and enjoyed our ‘Lost World’ music. Without you, none of this would be possible. Thank you!
In the Best Alternative Music Performance category, the Cure beat out Bon Iver, Turnstile, Wet Leg and Hayley Williams, while for Best Alternative Music Album, they won ahead of Bon Iver, Tyler, The Creator, Wet Leg and Hayley Williams.
