The 29-year-old singer – who shot to stardom as part of One Direction – and his co-writer Kid Harpoon have received three nominations in total for Harry’s critically-acclaimed third studio album, ‘Harry’s House’.

Harry has been nominated for the Best Song, Songwriter of the Year and Most Performed Work awards.

Elsewhere, Little Simz has been nominated for the Best Album gong alongside the Arctic Monkeys, who have been recognised for their seventh studio album, ‘The Car’.

Other big-name nominees include Jack Antonoff and Florence Welch, who are among the contenders for the Best Song gong for ‘King’, while Ed Sheeran has received two nominations in the Most Performed Work category

Ed, 32, has been recognised for ‘Bad Habits’ and ‘Shivers’, both of which he co-wrote with Johnny McDaid, his long-time showbiz pal.

Meanwhile, Kate Bush’s ‘Running Up That Hill’ is among the nominees for the Most Performed Work accolade, too.

The hit track was actually released 38 years ago, but it witnessed a massive resurgence in 2022 after it featured in the hit Netflix show ‘Stranger Things’.

The single topped the UK charts last year and it also became the singer’s first top ten hit in the US.

The Rising Star award will be won by one of Cat Burns, Ines Dunn, tendai, venbee and Victoria Canal.

Elsewhere, Sting will become a Fellow of the Ivors Academy, the highest honour the Academy bestows.

The chart-topping singer previously admitted to being thrilled about receiving the accolade.

He said: “Of all the awards in the world of music, the Ivors are for me, the most prestigious.

“Songwriting is a skilled craft and the Ivors Academy are its guild. So, I am delighted and honoured to be offered this Fellowship of the Academy, joining and acknowledging this extraordinary group of fellow songwriters, and all of those who went before us.”

All of the award winners will be announced at Grosvenor House in London on May 18.
