George Ezra
Nominated for: Artist of the Year and Song of the Year
Gold Rush Kid - English singer-songwriter George Ezra’s third studio album moves his sound in a different direction, but once again hits the spot. The record starts as expected, but despite the anthems and upbeat tracks in the first half of the album, an intimate Ezra opens up about mental health and obsessive thoughts in the latter stages. With a wonderful selection of songs, overall, Gold Rush Kid is impeccable.

The 1975
Nominated for: Album of the Year, Group of the Year and Best Rock/Alternative Act (WON)
Being Funny in a Foreign Language - The universally acclaimed fifth studio album from The 1975 is energetic and intriguing. Although short in length, the English pop rock band outdo themselves on Being Funny in a Foreign Language. As always, their upbeat, catchy hooks are present, time and time again, but their cutting and sincere lyrics are the true highlight. The bands straight-forward approach is exhilarating, refreshing and leaves you craving more.
