Lang's Invincible Summer album will go head to head with releases by punk-rock girl trio Sleater-Kinney and folk mainstay Janis Ian for the outstanding music album at the 12th annual GLAAD Media Awards. Singer-songwriter Patty Larkin and Stephen Gately of the Irish pop outfit Boyzone were also nominated for the award, to be given out by the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation in ceremonies to take place later this year.
The complete category listing is: K.D. Lang, Invincible Summer; Sleater-Kinney, All Hands On The Bad One; Janis Ian, God And The F.B.I.; Patty Larkin, Regrooving The Dream; and Stephen Gately for his solo effort, New Beginning.
The GLAAD Media Awards honors individuals and media and entertainment efforts for their fair, accurate, and inclusive representations of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community and the issues that affect their lives.
