The Recording Academy handed out Grammy awards to artists in various categories on Sunday night.
Hosted by R&B singer Alicia Keys, the show's first female host in 14 years, the awards took place at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. This year the Recording Academy expanded its General Field (Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Best New Artist) to eight nominees each, meaning that the competition was fiercer than before.
In the pre-gala ceremony in Los Angeles, at which most of the more than 80 prizes are handed out, folk rocker Carlile - this year's most nominated woman - won her first three Grammys ever, in the Americana and American Roots categories.
But Kacey Musgraves and rapper Childish Gambino emerged as the biggest winners with four trophies each. At a ceremony dominated by female performers and presenters, Kacey Musgraves won album of the year and Cardi B became the first woman to win best rap album as a solo artist.
