'Did that happen?' Jon Batiste wins album of the year

STORY: Batiste, who leads the band on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert," landed five awards overall, including the night's biggest prize for "We Are," a jazz album inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement.

Batiste's other wins included best music video for "Freedom," a vibrantly colored tribute to New Orleans, and an award for composing and arranging of songs for animated Pixar movie "Soul."

Country star Carrie Underwood won the Grammy for best roots gospel album "My Savior"

The highest honors in music were postponed from January during a spike in COVID-19 cases and moved from Los Angeles to the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Stars walked a red carpet and thousands of spectators packed the venue, a contrast to last year's scaled-down outdoor event.
