The Nationwide Mercury Prize celebrates the year in music. The shortlist was chosen from an entry of over
230 albums by UK and Irish artists and announced at The Hospital in London and can be seen on MySpace.
The winner of the 2007 Prize will be announced at the Nationwide Mercury Prize Show on Tuesday 4 September. There will be programmes on BBC Television and Radio.

The Nationwide Mercury Prize is open to albums from all music genres. The Prize focuses on the music on the album - it does not take into account album sales, media exposure or live performances. Each year the shortlist celebrates a range of styles and genres of music from the UK and Ireland.

Nationwide's sponsorship of the Prize highlights their support of UK culture and has resulted in exciting new initiatives such as the Nationwide Mercury Prize student art competition and exhibition.
