16 Rockers Who Have Surprisingly Never Won A Grammy

In times like these, it's important to remember that not every singer, musician, and performer is Beyoncé. Not that there's anything wrong with success, acclaim, and recognition. 

Here are 16 major musical artists who have never won a Grammy:  

1.  Nickelback . . . 5 nominations

 

2.  The Beach Boys . . . 4 nominations

 

3.  Guns N' Roses . . . 3 nominations

 

4.  The Monkees . . . 4 nominations

 

5.  Def Leppard . . . 0 nominations

 

6.  Journey . . . 1 nomination

7.  Foreigner . . . 3 nominations

 

8.  Kid Rock . . . 5 nominations

 

9.  Cat Stevens . . . 1 nomination

 

10.  The Who . . . 2 nominations

 

11.  The Moody Blues . . . 0 nominations

14.  Queen . . . 4 nominations

 

15.  Jimi Hendrix . . . 1 nomination

 

16.  Joe Satriani . . . 15 nominations  

Some of these artists do have Grammy lifetime achievement awards including The Who and Jimi Hendrix. Maybe that's a way to make up for overlooking them in the past?

 Are you surprised, or was the Recording Academy right in dodging them?
