Miloco's Brit Nominees 2009
Coldplay lead the way for our award-gunning clients!
21st Jan 09
So the Brit Award nominations are out, which is always a good time of year to big up our most prolific clients of the last twelve months, assuming, which we can, we have some up for awards.
We knew when Coldplay came to Miloco last summer to put some finishing touches on Viva La Vida..., that we'd be writing about the inevitable Brit Award recognition they would have come January. And here we are. The band are up for four awards: British Live Act, British Group, British Single for 'Viva La Vida', and of course the MasterCard British Album, which they have bagged for each of their three previous albums.
Adele was also on an inevitable road to success for these awards too. Her 'Chasing Pavements' single is also up for British Single - one of three nominations also comprising British Female Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act. Joining Adele in the running for British Female Solo Artist is MIA. Rounding up our girl force are Santogold, who is nominated for International Female Solo Artist, and Florence and The Machine who has already been chosen for the Critics Choice Award.
Finally, it wouldn't be right if we didn't have at least one lad pining for glory at the Brits. This year Will Young, who made parts of his recent album Let It Go with producer Mike Spencer at Miloco, has been nominated yet again for the British Male Solo Artist award.
The Brits take place at London's Earls Court Arena on Wednesday 18 February 2009. We wish all the nominees the best of luck on the night.
