St. Vincent Triumphs at the 2025 Grammy Awards
Major Wins for “Flea” and “All Born Screaming”
St. Vincent, the acclaimed musician known for her innovative sound and artistry, made headlines this evening at the 2025 Grammy Awards. Her single “Flea” from the album All Born Screaming clinched the award for Best Alternative Music Performance, surpassing formidable competition from tracks by Kim Gordon, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Fontaines D.C., and Cage the Elephant.
Acceptance Speech Highlights
In a heartfelt acceptance speech, Annie Clark, the artist behind St. Vincent, expressed her gratitude towards her family, friends, and collaborators who contributed to the creation of “Flea.” Notable mentions included rock legends Dave Grohl and Justin Meldal-Johnsen. Clark also shared a light-hearted moment, thanking the awards show band for playing Beck’s “Devil’s Haircut” as she approached the stage, humorously noting, “That’s so nice! I do have a devil’s haircut in my mind!”
Best Alternative Music Album Award
St. Vincent’s success continued as she also won Best Alternative Music Album for All Born Screaming. In her acceptance speech for this honor, she conveyed her love for her wife and daughter, emphasizing the personal significance of the win. “To every other nominee in this category, you fuckin’ rip and I love you all so much. It’s an honor to be in the same world where you all exist,” Clark stated. She elaborated on the creative process, describing making records as akin to “building a house when you have no floor plans and you don’t know what wood or concrete is.”
A Peek into Her Personal Life
Following the awards, Clark revealed her marital status and motherhood, noting that she has kept this aspect of her life private. “The child is young, just to be clear,” she said, laughing and clarifying that her family life hasn’t been a long-held secret. Her candidness about her personal life caught many off guard, adding another layer to her public persona.
