There was a time when the world of World Cafe and the world of the Grammys only intersected with a few Contemporary Folk nominees. These days, that category doesn't even exist — hello, Americana! — and World Cafe guests like Melbourne's Courtney Barnett are cropping up as nominees across the board.
Get ready for the big show, which airs on CBS Monday at 8 p.m. ET, by listening here to World Cafe sessions with Barnett and nine other artists who are nominated to win Grammys.
