Overview
Brit rock auteur Steven Wilson received his third Grammy nomination this week in the "Best Surround Sound Album" category for 'Grace for Drowning,' (Kscope) the first album he's released under his own name.
Wilson is a pioneer in the field of surround sound, and this nomination maintains his perfect batting average: three surround sound Grammy nominations for his last three Grammy-eligible albums.
He was previously recognized for Porcupine Tree's 2007 album 'Fear of a Blank Planet' and 2009's 'The Incident'.
2012 is shaping up to be a busy year for Wilson as well, with several major events in the pipeline.
Wilson will perform a series of US west-coast tour dates in support of 'Grace for Drowning' in the spring. During that run, he will record a show for a live Blu-Ray, to be released later in the year.
