Well done to TV On The Radio who last night won this year's Shortlist Music Prize (now, altogether, "it's the American equivalent of the Mercury Music Prize"). They beat off competition from Loretta Lynn, The Killers, Franz Ferdinand, The Streets, Dizzee Rascal and Wilco to win the prize, which is voted on by an academy of artists, journalists and pundit types.
Speaking to NME, the band's frontman, Tunde Adebimpe, said: "It's a little weird. We met ?uestlove and he said 'I nominated you guys for the Shortlist Awards' and we're just like 'Oh my god ?uestlove knows who we are.' We just kind of freaked out about it so I'm psyched [about winning tonight]. I'm glad."
