Nordic Music Prize 2022

Nordic Music Prize is an annual award for the Best Nordic Album Of The Year. Inspired by the British & Irish Mercury Prize, the prize was introduced in 2010, and initiated by by:Larm.

In setting up Nordic Music Prize, by:Larm has several aims: first, to create even stronger unity across the Nordic regions industry, second, to further increase international interest and awareness of what the region has to offer musically, and, last but not least, to refocus on the full-length album as an art form. The winner will receive a cash prize of 10 000 euros.
