Little Mix, The 1975 og Emily Sandé er blandt de optrædende til showet
De nominerede til den prestigefulde britiske musikpris Brit Awards er nu blevet offentliggjort. Grime-rapperen Skepta (billedet) og pigegruppen Little Mix fører med hver tre nomineringer.
På listen finder vi også blandt andre to afdøde kunstnere, David Bowie og Leonard Cohen.
Skepta vandt i øvrigt i 2016 en anden markant pris, Mercury Prize, for sit fjerde album, "Konnichiwa".
Priserne bliver uddelt 22. februar i O2 Arena i London med den canadiske sanger Michael Bublé som vært, og blandt de optrædende kan nævnes Little Mix, The 1975 og Emily Sandé.
Brit Awards uddeles af den engelske musikindustri og er dermed det engelske svar på den amerikanske Grammy og på Danish Music Awards.
