The winner of this year's Shortlist Music Prize, sort of the US version of the Mercury Music Prize, was announced yesterday, and Cat Power was the winner for her most recent album 'The Greatest'. Well done her. She beat nine other shortlisters, including Regina Spektor, Hot Chip and Tom Waits, and is the first women to win the prize, that has previously gone to Sigur Ros, NERD, Damien Rice and TV On The Radio.
