This year's Grammy will raise funds to support wildfire relief efforts in L.A.

Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason jr. previously said in a statement: "The upcoming Grammy Awards won't just be about celebrating the best in music this year, it will also show how the power of music can help rebuild, uplift and support those in need.

"We are thrilled that so many artists in our community are banding together at this time to show support for their fellow music makers and others impacted by the recent wildfires."
