My Vote for Grammy Best New Artist



Justin Bieber, Drake, Florence and the Machine, Mumford and Sons and Esperanza Spalding. It's a fantastic batch of Grammy best new artist nominees this year! Admittedly, it's even a tough choice for me, but if I could vote, I would choose Mumford and Sons. I discovered them early last year when they were charting in the UK, and I have always been surprised how their brand of music could possibly chart in the UK! But it did! And see where they are now - a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist! Cool!

I love their unique brand of music though and how they have defied radio or conventional wisdom and produced an album that has been selling millions all over the world!
