'Bodega' also feature in the awards short-listings, deservedly (in many people minds) picking up a nomination in the 'Up-and-Coming Artist' category.

The nominations create a triple celebration for Norrie McIver from Lewis who is part of both Bodega and Na Seoid, and also a member of Skippinish who are nominated in the 'Best Dance Band' category.
