"Nick Hemming, 35, originally from Staffordshire, now finds himself in competition with Elbow and The Last Shadow Puppets after being shortlisted for the best song musically and lyrically at the Ivor Novello awards.
It is the first time in the awards' 54-year history that a self-published musician has been nominated in the prestigious category.
Hemming, who wraps fabric in a furniture warehouse, is also a songwriter in the little-known indie band The Leisure Society. He has been nominated for the song The Last of the Melting Snow, which was self-published and self-produced."
Never heard of them before but after listening to this on youtube ,think i'll investigate them a bit more:
