The Grammys announced the Country Album nominees

Taylor Swift also picked up her second consecutive album of the year nomination, for Evermore. She won the award earlier this year for its companion album, Folklore. However she was surprisingly shut out of other categories including song of the year and pop vocal album.

Jazz keyboardist Jon Batiste leads the nominations, with 11 in total across his own solo work and his contributions to Pixar film Soul.

Justin Bieber, Doja Cat and H.E.R. follow with eight nominations apiece; Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo are close behind with seven.
