Cut Copy up for Australian Music Prize
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 4 February 2009
Cut Copy have been revealed as one of the artists on this year’s Australian Music Prize shortlist, ahead of the official announcement of the full list at the St Kilda Festival this Sunday, at which Cut Copy will be DJing.
On the early announcement of one of the shortlisted artists, award director Tracey Grimson said: “The Amp has announced Cut Copy’s nomination ahead of time so that fans of Cut Copy DJs don’t miss out on what is bound to be one of their legendary DJ sets. This is a great coup for The Amp – to have an artist that’s so high profile and with so much creative credibility helping us announce the Shortlist”.
The full shortlist will feature nine Australian acts and the winner will be announced in Sydney on 13 Mar. The winner receives AUS$30,000.
