The launch at the Indigo2 in London will be hosted for the fourth time by Fearne Cotton.

This year’s Critics Choice winner Jessie J, who has also been named the BBC Sound Of 2011, and The Wanted are also set to perform.

The BRIT Awards feature 13 categories, and organisers said this year’s 68 nominations “will reflect all that is both popular and credible in British music right now”.
