The shortlist for the 2020 Mercury Music Price was announced on Thursday by Lauren Lavern on her BBC 6 Music show. There have been plaudits for the number of woman included this year but there was very little, well, madness. There are no real left-field inclusions, nothing that needs a trip to Google to learn about the nominee. Maybe I listen to too much 6 Music…
