After unveiling the official award statue recently, BRITs 2012 Critics' Choice nominees were announced and at UDHQ we are very happy to see our lad Maverick Sabre included in the shortlist alongside Emeli Sande and Michael Kiwanuka.

In association with War Child, the winner will be announced on December 15th.

With artists of the likes of Adele, Ellie Goulding, Florence + The Machine and Jessie J as previous winners, the award is definitely a major recognition for breakthrough acts.
