Star Track Album Seen 'N' Heard T he 2015 Brit Award nominations have finally been announced with, it seems, a few surprises alongside the obvious candidates. The biggest name in this year's Brit Awards is, of course, Sam Smith. He faces accolades for British Male Solo Artist, British Breakthrough Act, British Single’ for his number one hit’ 'Stay With Me', British Album Of The Year, for his Platinum debut, 'In The Lonely Hour,' and British Artist Video Of The Year, for 'Stay With Me,' which featured a church choir. But closely following him is yet again pop favourite, Ed Sheeran, who is also up for the same awards (apart from Breakthrough Act) for his Rick Rubin produced album, 'X,' and single 'Thinking Out Loud'. George Ezra is high up in the compe- tition - his single, 'Budapest,' and album, 'Wanted On Voyage,' landing him nomi- nations to go alongside his British Male Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act nods. Behind him is Brighton rockers, Royal Blood, and they're looking at awards for British Group, British Breakthrough Act and British Album of the Year. Other artists being recognised for their achievements include Ella Henderson, FKA Twigs, Alt-J, Clean Bandit and One Direction, with songs from Calvin Harris, Duke Dumont, Mark Ronson, Route 94 and Sigma also hav- ing two nominations apiece this year. Musical counterparts, from other parts of the world, get their own nomina- tions as usual; the likes of Hozier and 5 Seconds of Summer are among the recognised newcomers, alongside John Legend, Beck, Sia, Taylor Swift and Foo Fighters to name but a few. Of course, the Brits had already begun their award distribution, having awarded singer-songwriter James Bay with the Brits Critics' Choice Award, beating George The Poet and Years & Years, the latter of whom became the BBC Sound of 2015 poll winners.
