Veteran music and television producer Ken Ehrlich will executive produce and write the 57th Annual GRAMMY Awards, it was announced today by The Recording Academy. The 57th GRAMMY Awards marks Ehrlich's 35th year as a producer of Music's Biggest Night.
The telecast will take place live from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles on Sunday, Feb. 8, 2015, and will be broadcast in HDTV and 5.1 surround sound on the CBS Television Network at 8 p.m. ET/PT. For updates and breaking news, please visit GRAMMY.com and The Recording Academy's social networks on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
Additionally, Ehrlich and his production company AEG Ehrlich Ventures (the partnership between Ehrlich and AEG, the Los Angeles-based entertainment sports and venue management company) will produce the 58th and 59th GRAMMY Awards, as well as the upcoming one-hour entertainment special "A Very GRAMMY Christmas," which will include performances of holiday songs and current pop hits, as well as artists sharing their favorite holiday and GRAMMY memories. The road to Music's Biggest Night begins with "A Very GRAMMY Christmas" — which airs Friday, Dec. 5, and will be broadcast in HDTV and 5.1 surround sound on the CBS Television Network from 9 – 10 p.m. ET/PT — and culminates with the 57th Annual GRAMMY Awards.
"Ken's vast knowledge and genuine love of music, as well as his expertise and vision, have made him an outstanding producer — and ultimately the executive producer — of the GRAMMY Awards for 35 years now," said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy. "As one of the key architects of our signature 'GRAMMY Moments,' he continues to elevate the content, quality, and production value of our annual telecast. We couldn't be more pleased to continue our long-standing partnership and, more importantly, I am proud to call him my good friend."
"I consider it an honor to have been associated with the GRAMMY Awards and CBS for so many years, and to be able to continue this relationship over the next three years," said Ehrlich. "I am proud of the standard of excellence that the GRAMMYs have maintained over the years, and particularly proud of the audience successes and critical acclaim the show has garnered in the years since Neil Portnow, Leslie Moonves, Nina Tassler, Jack Sussman and I have become partners in presenting Music's Biggest Night."
"For over three decades, as the conductor of Music's Biggest Night, Ken has exceeded expectations and manages to create bigger and better event television each passing year," said Jack Sussman, Executive Vice President, Specials, Music and Live Events, CBS Entertainment. "He is, without a doubt, the hardest working man in show business and his passion for music and artists is reflected in his work. All of us at CBS value our partnership with Ken immensely, and we consider it a true privilege to work with him."
