Coldplay and Welsh newcomer Duffy are set to dominate this year's BRITs, following the announcement that both acts are tipped for four awards each. But the critics' darlings of last year Elbow and the US west coast folk band Fleet Foxes have made the final step into mainstream acceptance as they were listed among the nominees revealed at the awards launch party at London's Roundhouse.
The prevalence of Coldplay at this year's event, which takes place on 18 February, mirrors their remarkable domination of the Grammy 2009 nominations list, in which they were named in seven different categories. With the Grammys also taking place in February, Coldplay could walk away with 11 awards for their album Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends before the month is out.
