It got multiple nominations and accolades, including Song of the Year at the 2021 Soul Train Music Awards, as well as Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best R&B Performance (tied with Jazmine Sullivan’s “Pick Up Your Feelings” (2020)) and Best R&B Song at the 2022 Grammy Awards.
The song was nominated for and won multiple prizes, including Song of the Year at the 2021 Soul Train Music Awards, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best R&B Performance, and Best R&B Song at the 2022 Grammy Awards.
The duo have received the Record of the Year award for their song “Leave the Door Open.” They outperformed ABBA, Olivia Rodrigo, Justin Bieber, Doja Cat, and SZA, as well as Jon Batiste. Billie Eilish, Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga, Brandi Carlile, and Lil Nas X are among the performers.
The pair released their first album An Evening with Silk Sonic in November, following their live debut at the 2021 Grammys in March. At the Grammys, “Leave the Door Open” also won Song of the Year, Best R&B Performance, and Best R&B Song.
