Bon Iver, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Lauryn Hill — do these artists ring a bell?

These skilled musicians, along with a score of others, were once positioned for post-Grammy mega-stardom after bringing home the coveted prize for Best New Artist at the summit of their careers.

As we near the 60th Annual Grammy Awards this Sunday (January 28), which is poised to acknowledge a fresh generation of artists, we're revisiting past winners who disbanded or whose follow-up efforts failed to reach the standard that warranted their Grammy triumphs.

Check out the gallery below to see how 11 Best New Artist winners fared over the years.
