Lido Pimienta Is Nominated For A Latin Grammy And Shortlisted For The Polaris Prize

Lido Pimienta‘s Miss Colombia has been nominated for “Best Alternative Album” at the Latin Grammys! We can’t say we’re surprised… after all, Pimienta is already a Polaris Music Prize winner for 2017 La Papessa, and she’s on the shortlist for the 2020 Polaris Music Prize to be announced next Monday, October 19. Of course, the Latin Grammys mark a big step for Pimienta into the US market, and we’re really excited that we were able to help get the album on the radio down here.

Thanks so much to all the stations that have been supporting Lido Pimienta in both the US and Canada this year. Go here to find out all about the Latin Grammys via an NPR playlist that’s full of great music.
