Among the awards the “Fast Car” singer is within the working for are entertainer of the 12 months; album, tune and single of the 12 months; and male entertainer of the 12 months.

Moroney, in the meantime, is up for feminine artist of the 12 months in addition to new feminine artist of the 12 months (which she gained forward of the present) and tune of the 12 months, amongst different honors.
