Victoires de la Musique 2015 nominations

Nomination have been announced for this year's Victoires de la Musique awards, with some
interesting nomination in the list.

Christine and the Queens do well, with a total of five nominations, including female artist, best video, best song and best chanson album as well as best tour.

A nod as well for Yelle and Cascadeur in the best electronic album category, and it's heartening to see three nominations for the Do, for best video, best female artist and best rock album.

Nice to see a nomination for François & The Atlas Mountain as well, although quite how they qualify as a breakthrough act I'm unsure.

The winners are announced on February 13 at a show in the Zénith in Paris.
