Grunge rocker, Chris Cornell, who died in May 2017, at the age of 52, won a posthumous Grammy on Sunday for Best Rock Performance. Cornell won for his haunting “When Bad Does Good,” beating a field that included the Arctic Monkeys and rising retro rockers Greta Van Fleet. “His voice was his vision and his music was his peace,” his daughter Toni said while accepting the trophy along with her brother. Cornell was found hanging in his hotel room in Detroit early on May 18, 2017, after a show with his main band Soundgarden. His family sued a Beverly Hills doctor over the dispute, saying Cornell had been “negligently and repeatedly” prescribed mind-altering controlled substances in the years leading up to his death.
