Geese, Rosalía, and Olivia Dean all took home trophies at this year’s BRIT Awards, the annual celebration honoring the best music of the United Kingdom, as well as a handful of awards given out to international acts. Dean clinched the most trophies this year, taking home Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, Best Pop Act, and Song of the Year for her duet “Rein Me In” with Sam Fender. Rosé and Bruno Mars’ “APT” won International Song of the Year, and Rosalía won International Artist of the year. Accepting the award for International Group of the Year, Geese’s Max Bassin kept his speech simple: “Free Palestine, fuck ICE, go Geese.”
Fred again.., Lola Young, and Wolf Alice were also honored at tonight’s ceremony at Manchester’s Co-op Live Arena. Earlier this week, PinkPantheress was named Producer of the Year ahead of the ceremony, making her the youngest artist and first woman to receive the honor.
