| Bastille, Disclosure lead Brit nominations Posted: 09 Jan 2014 07:50 PM PST Other nominees in the music awards include David Bowie and One Direction. Music acts Bastille and Disclosure led the nominations for Britain's top music awards on Thursday, up for four prizes each at the annual Brit Awards, and veteran singer David Bowie was put forward for two awards. The alternative rock band Bastille and electronic music duo Disclosure were both nominated as best British group and British breakthrough act of the year, while also competing for best single and best album. Bastille was recognised for the single Pompeii and album Bad Blood. Disclosure – made up of brothers Guy and Howard Lawrence – was put forward for its single White Noise and album Settle. "We're completely blown away by the four nominations! When we started the band we never thought we'd be recognised in such a way so the whole thing is an awesome surprise," Dan Smith from Bastille, which formed in 2010, said in a statement. But while the newcomers led the nominations, veteran singer Bowie, 67, reappeared on the list after a comeback last year when he released his first new material for a decade. He received nominations for best British male singer and best album for The Next Day. The winners of British pop's biggest night will be announced on Feb 19. — Reuters Complete list of nominees: Best Producer Ethan Johns Flood & Alan Moulder Paul Epworth British Breakthrough Act Bastille Disclosure Laura Mvula London Grammar Tom Odell Best British Female Solo Artiste Birdy Ellie Goulding Jessie J Laura Marling Laura Mvula Best British Group Arctic Monkeys Bastille Disclosure One Direction Rudimental Best British Male Solo Artiste David Bowie Jake Bugg James Blake John Newman Tom Odell Best British Single Bastille Calvin Harris Disclosure Ellie Goulding John Newman Naughty Boy Olly Murs One Direction Passenger Rudimental Critics' Choice Award Chlöe Howl Ella Eyre Sam Smith Best International Female Solo Artiste Janelle Monáe Katy Perry Lady Gaga Lorde Pink Best International Group Arcade Fire Daft Punk Haim Kings Of Leon Macklemore & Ryan Lewis Best International Male Solo Artiste Bruno Mars Drake Eminem John Grant Justin Timberlake MasterCard British Album of the Year Arctic Monkeys Bastille David Bowie Disclosure Rudimental |
