This puzzle is part of the MOAT Music Meta Pack (which is still available for purchase here, fwiw). However, before it was included in that pack I had originally planned to run the puzzle on the 30th of January in the run-up to the Grammys. But now that the Grammys are upon us, I just couldn't resist releasing it anyway! The answer to the meta is a band name (who I predicted back in August 2023 would win big at the Grammys! )
Nudges are available in the puzzle description on Crosshare.
Answer is here.

Opened this in Crosshare and was surprised to find I had already solved it as part of the MMMP. It was just as much fun the second time around. Thanks, Ben!

Also discovered that I'd already done this one. But it reminded me to do the next one in the set that I hadn't done, so I still got a bonus puzzle.

Exceedingly clueless about the whole subject; had to use check and reveal, nudges and google to claw to the answer, but couldn't pass up at least making an attempt on a Ben puzzle.

Pleasant extra and quickly across the GROATY (a word I have coined for a GRAMMY MOAT). Thanks for the puzzle and something to try to find and play.

Not familiar with the band, but solved with a bit of googling. No nudges needed. Nice one Ben!

And the winner of THREE GRAMMYS is...
At tonight's Grammys boygenious won Best Alternative Rock Album for "The Album" (not exactly an original-sounding title, but it's a deserving winner), and Best Rock Performance and Best Rock Song for "Not Strong Enough" (my favourite song from 2023, and an absolute banger!) Congratulations to Lucy, Phoebe and Julien!
