2021 Grammys: Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak perform latest song ‘Leave The Door Open’

March 14, 2021 By Nate Day

Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak brought down the house at the Grammys on Sunday.

The two have teamed up to release the song “Leave The Door Open” under the supergroup moniker of Silk Sonic.

Mars and Paak, both 35, took to the stage early in the evening to perform their tune, a love letter to the soul music of the 1970s. 

They both performed in retro-style dark orange suits and the performance featured a trio of backup singers in traditional ’70s. style.

The duo, who will release the album “An Evening With Silk Sonic” later this year, was not originally part of the Grammy’s lineup of performers but campaigned hard on social media until they secured a post.

Mars even wrote a letter to the Grammys, asking them to make room for “two working musicians” to perform.
