Dette er de nominerte til årets Grammy

I dag ble de nominerte til årets Grammy i USA annonsert, og blant store navn som Taylor Swift (bildet), Kendrick Lamar og The Weeknd finner vi overraskende nok at Patti Smiths lydbokinnspilling av den norske forfatteren Jo Nesbøs 'Blood On Snow' er nominert i kategorien for beste spoken word-album.

Den norske produsenten Morten Lindberg er nominert med hele tre album i kategorien for beste surround-lyd for sine produksjoner av Amdahl: Astrognosia & Aesop, Magnificat og Spes.

Og lurer du på hvorfor Adele ikke er nominert i noen kategorier? Det er rett og slett fordi både hennes album 25 og singelen Hello kom ut etter 30. september - som tradisjonelt sett har vært siste frist for å gi ut album som skal vurderes i nominasjonsprosessen.

Prisutdelingen sendes direkte på CBS 15. februar 2016.
