UK Awards in Music

On Set List, I have explored major award honors local to the United States and global to such countries as Germany and England - to name a few.

German honors include the Bravo Otto Awards.  England honors include, most notably, the Brit Awards.

In this post, I thought I would expand on more UK Awards offered in the music industry.

My take away -
This list could easily go on for some time, so I chose the above honors as samples.  

The UK is not exclusive to England, where one might recall the BRIT Awards or Q Awards.  Honors recognize Ireland and Scotland as well, making UK awards very impressive.
