Adele’s performance hiatus is coming to an end.

The Grammy Foundation officially announced that the singer will perform on the 54th Annual Grammy Awards stage scheduled to air Feb.12.

About five months ago, Adele had surgery on her vocal cords. She was forced to cancel her sold-out U.S. tour in order to have the surgery done.

The end date of her vocal rest was unknown, but after posters for the Grammy Awards had the face of Adele on them, rumors started spreading about her return.

On Jan. 31, Adele said on Twitter, “Ima be, Ima be singing at the Grammys. It’s been so long I started to forget I was a singer! I can’t wait.”

The Grammy Awards can be a really successful night for Adele. Her song “Rolling in the Deep” is nominated for three awards, including Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Short Form Music Video.

She is also nominated for Best Pop Solo Performance for “Someone Like You” and Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album for her latest album 21. That is a total of six Grammy nominations.

Other performers for music’s biggest night include Coldplay, Foo Fighters, Bruno Mars, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Paul McCartney, Blake Shelton and many more.

The Grammys air Feb. 12 at 8 p.m. on CBS.
