The nominations for the 2015 BRIT Awards were just announced, and the field is led by home-bred crooner Sam Smith. He picked up nominations for Best Album Of The Year, Best Male Solo Artist, Breakthrough Act, and Best Single and Best Music Video for “Stay With Me.” FKA Twigs got noms for Best Female Solo Artist and Breakthrough Act, Jessie Ware picked up one for Female Solo Artist, and Chvrches were nominated for Breakthrough Act. (Curiously, the latter were not nominated at all last year when their debut album would have been eligible.) As for non-British artists, the War On Drugs will go up against 5 Seconds Of Summer, the Black Keys, First Aid Kid, and Foo Fighters for Best International Group. Beck, Hozier, Jack White, John Legend, Pharrell Williams, Beyonce, Lana Del Rey, Sia, St. Vincent, and Taylor Swift are all up for International Male and Female artists respectively. This year’s ceremony will take place on 2/25. Check out the full list of nominees below.
