0

The 2024 Mercury Prize nominees have been revealed.

The award, which honors the best of UK and Irish music, celebrates the 12 Albums of the Year while recognizing artistic achievement across a range of contemporary music genres, and is the music equivalent to the Booker Prize for literature and the Turner Prize for art.

Last year’s Prize was won by Ezra Collective.

The albums were selected by an independent judging panel, and to qualify, the UK release date needed to land between July 15, 2023 and July 12, 2024 to be eligible.

The winner of the 2024 Mercury Prize will be announced in September, with more details set to be announced soon.

The Mercury Prize’s broadcast partner BBC Music will provide exclusive television and radio coverage, plus online and social media support, around all the 12 nominated albums.
