Ballots are officially open! 🗳

Recording Academy voting members, please consider:

Field: Pop & Dance / Electronic
Category: Best Dance Pop Recording
Song: Tell Me Your Name
Artist: Thomas Orlina

Thomas is a Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, and producer who advocates for mental health and uses his voice through music to amplify diversity, mental health, LGBTQIA+, and AAPI communities.

His “pop with a purpose” music has been featured in Forbes, GLAAD, and other credible publications to highlight various social causes including World Teen Mental Wellness Day.

The overarching themes of this upbeat energetic dance song are to embrace our sexuality, free ourselves from public opinion, and exude confidence. The song was collectively developed by 21-year-old rising Latino songwriter, Christopher Bugna, and the music company, Melt Music.

Having your support on the ballot is a step closer to furthering opportunities for queer AAPI artists and expanding diversity in music. This submission makes Thomas one of the first openly gay Filipino-American artists in this category, which would make this a historical moment in GRAMMYs® history!

Thank you for your consideration for “Tell Me Your Name” by Thomas Orlina for “Best Dance Pop Recording.”
