On Monday, February 15, 2016, Sanchez won the "Score soundtrack for visual media" at 2016 Grammy awards.

Speaking backstage, he said “It’s awesome to get this, especially after being nixed by the Oscars. I have to thank this academy, because the other academy, I have nothing to thank them for. So it’s extra sweet."

Sanchez beat Alexandre Desplat (“The Imitation Game”), Hans Zimmer (“Interstellar”), Johann Johannsson (“The Theory of Everything”), and Justin Hurwitz (“Whiplash”) to emerge the winner.
