"The Cure have been nominated twice: Their comeback album Songs of a Lost World received a nomination for Best Alternative Music Album, while their song "Alone" was nominated for Best Alternative Music Performance. These nods serve as The Cure's first Grammy nominations in 24 years; their last recognition at the Grammys arrived in 2001, where their 2000 album Bloodflowers received a nomination for Best Alternative Music Album (they didn't win, ultimately losing out to Radiohead's Kid A)."
"So, will 2026 be the year that The Cure finally win their first-ever Grammy award? Though we gave Songs of a Lost World some significant praise upon its release in late 2024, the Best Alternative Album category has some tough competition this year in Bon Iver, Hayley Williams, Wet Leg, and Tyler, the Creator. In the Alternative Music Performance category, they're up against similar competitors in Williams, Wet Leg, and Bon Iver, with Turnstile rounding out the group."
"In addition to getting some well-earned Grammy praise, The Cure are gearing up for big 2026: They've got a handful of UK and EU live dates set for the summer, plus a concert film, The Show of a Lost World, arriving on December 11th of this year. Plus, the band recently confirmed work on their 15th studio album. As for the Grammys, the 2026 ceremony will go down on February 1st, 2026 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, airing live on CBS and Paramount+."
The Cure received two Grammy nominations for 2026: Songs of a Lost World for Best Alternative Music Album and “Alone” for Best Alternative Music Performance.

Songs of a Lost World competes with Bon Iver, Hayley Williams, Wet Leg, and Tyler, the Creator. “Alone” faces Williams, Wet Leg, Bon Iver, and Turnstile. The band has UK and EU summer dates planned, will release a concert film, The Show of a Lost World, on December 11, and is working on a fifteenth studio album.
