Canada, represent! The Grammy nominations were announced last night, and three Canadian acts are up for major awards. Montreal’s Arcade Fire will compete for album of the year (for The Suburbs) against Lady Gaga, Lady Antebellum, Katy Perry and Eminem. The Suburbs has also been nominated for best alternative album. Both of our homegrown heartthrobs Drake and Justin Bieber are up for best new artist; Bieber has been given a nod for best pop vocal album and Drake for best rap album. Neil Young’s Le Noise is up for best rock album.
