Grammy Award for Best New Artist
Jazz musicians who received the Grammy Award for Best New Artist: list of 11 recipients by year.
The Grammy Award for Best New Artist has been awarded since the 2nd Annual Grammy Awards in 1960 (except in 1967) "for a new artist who releases, during the Eligibility Year, the first recording which establishes the public identity of that artist."
