ROBYN HEADLINES NEWNOWNEXT AWARDS

More great Robyn news today!! The sassy Swede is headling the NewNowNext Awards on LOGO. The show that saw Lady Gaga's first ever televised performance of Just Dance and her winning Brink of Fame Music Artist will be headlined by Robyn and feature Oh Land as this year's Brink of Fame winner. Robyn is, of course, coming off of a huge year with three albums (Body Talk 1,2 & 3) and a Grammy nomination for best dance recording for Dancing on My Own. Her tour was a huge success, hitting New York twice and selling out like faster than Johnny Depp in a Disney movie. Brink artist Oh Land is still virtually unknown (thus the title of the award) but her self-titled debut album, released yesterday, has critics in a tizzy. Logo describes the album as "a mix of lavish loops and layered vocals that pound through..". Sounds hot. From what I've heard it's a mixture of Sarah McLachlan and Bjork with a little groove thrown in. The NewNowNext awards will air April 11th at 10/9C, on Logo. Here is Oh Land's very cool video for her first single Sun of a Gun. Yes, it's spelled SUN in the song. I'm not an idiot.
