Also securing multiple nominations are Jade (Song of the Year and Pop Act) and The Last Dinner Party (Mastercard Album of the Year, Group of the Year, Best New Artist and Alternative/Rock Act), while Teddy Swims’ Lose Control is nominated for International Song of the Year, as is Shaboozey with A Bar Song (Tipsy).
