LOS ANGELES – The Latin Grammy nominations spread the love between established artists and newcomers, nominating songwriters Juan Luis Guerra and Alejandro Sanz in four categories each.
The nominations announced Wednesday at Hollywood’s Avalon nightclub also recognized new talents Jorge Drexler, an Uruguayan songwriter, and Mario Domm, the lead singer of the Mexican band Camila.
The rest of the nominations spanned the Latin Recording Academy’s multitude of genres from across Spain and the Americas, with three nods each to Camila, reggaeton star Daddy Yankee and Uruguay’s alt-rockers El Cuarteto de Nos.
