The Hyundai Mercury Prize Albums of the Year celebrate and promote the best of UK music, recognising artistic achievement across a range of contemporary music genres.
The judges said, “this year’s Hyundai Mercury Prize shortlist celebrates the remarkable power of British music. What these artists have in common is an infectious pleasure in music making and an arresting sense of urgency about the music they make. They delight in exploring musical possibilities and refusing to be pinned down by genre conventions.”
