The shortlist acknowledges British artists who are yet to have an Official Album Charts Top 20 or more than one Top 20 in the Official Singles Chart as of 31st October 2022.

Cat Burns makes the list after a busy year which saw her release her ‘
emotionally unavailable’ EP, including the track that saw her blow up on Tiktok, ‘go’. Discussing the nomination,
Cat shared: ““A BRITs Rising Star nomination was a major thing on my bucket list for me this year, so to have achieved that honestly means the world to me. I’m super grateful for the year I’ve had and am so honoured to have been chosen!”
