The 2026 Grammy Museum Icons Sessions gala took place on August 18, with pop star Taylor Swift performing a mash up of some of her most iconic songs. A clip of her performance was released on Monday, showing the 14-time Grammy winner singing a combination of "I Knew It, I Knew You," "August" and "All Too Well" on the floral piano she used during her record-setting Eras Tour.
Swift detailed her reasoning for the mashup, saying, "It's songs that are connected to each other by the common theme of being about memory and reliving certain detailed memories of your life, and the significance of those memories."
