Damien Rice won the Shortlist Music Prize for Artistic Achievement this weekend. The ceremony, held in Los Angeles, is comparable with the Mercury Music Prize in the UK.
The Irish singer-songwriter fought off stiff competition; other nominees included The Streets, The Black Keys and Interpol.
Eight of the nominated acts performed at the ceremony, which will be screened on US MTV on October 25th.
A panel of 'listmakers', including Dan The Automator, highly-respected for his production work for artists including DJ Shadow and for his own Handsome Boy Modelling School project, chose Rice as the overall winner.

Del the Funky Homosapien.
Word.
Incidentally, the Deltron 3030 record - a Del and the Automator collaboration which dates from the same period - features Damon Albarn on nasal narrative and Kid Koala on the decks and is a bit of a bona fide back-packer classic. Unfortunately Gorillaz had the snappy videos and subsequently sold around 27 billion records.
G'wan.
