Music to their ears! Emeli Sandé and Plan B lead Ivor Novello nominations with two nods each
|
She had a killer 2012 and it looks like 2013 is set to be another blinding year for Emeli Sandé who has been nominated for two Ivor Novello Awards.
The Clown singer is joined by Plan B and Alt-J, who also received two nods for the prestigious songwriting awards.
The 26-year-old singer, who enjoyed a series of high-profile appearances during the Olympics ceremonies last year, could pick up a pair of Ivor Novello awards.
Hitmakers: Emeli Sandé and Plan B have been nominated for two Ivor Novello awards each
Her track, Next To Me, is in the running to be named best song musically and lyrically after it was shortlisted along with Laura by Bat For Lashes and Jake Bugg's Two Fingers.
The same song is also shortlisted for most performed work along with Olly Murs' Dance With Me Tonight and Paradise by Coldplay.
Earlier this year Emeli walked away with two BRIT awards for British Female Solo Artist and British Album for Our Version of Events.
Another stellar year: After a fantastic 2012, 2013 is looking rather rosy for Emeli, seen here with her husband Adam Gouraguine
Plan B, real name Ben Drew, received nods for Ill Manors in the Best Contemporary Song category and Best Original Film Score.
The annual awards - in their 58th year - are highly prized because they are voted for by songwriters and composers.
They will be handed out at a ceremony at the Grosvenor House hotel in central London on Thursday May 16.
Troublemaker: Olly Murs has also been awarded a nomination. Pictured performing in New York on Tuesday
Mercury Prize winners Alt-J are also recognised, with Fitzpleasure up for best contemporary song along with Ill Manors and Pelican by the Maccabees.
An Awesome Wave, the album that won the Mercury Prize for Alt-J, is shortlisted with Ben Howard's Every Kingdom and Lianne La Havas' Is Your Love Big Enough? for the album award.
Other awards given out on the day include best original film score, songwriter of the year and international achievement.
