Seattle folk-rock act Fleet Foxes has been nominated for three awards at the 2009 Mojo Honors List. The band is up for album of the year (for “Fleet Foxes,” issued by Sub Pop in the U.S. and Bella Union in Europe), best live act and song of the year for “White Winter Hymnal.” U.K. indie-rock act Elbow and U.S. rock outfit Kings Of Leon each have two nominations for the U.K. monthly music magazine’s awards, both for song of the year and album of the year. Elbow is recognized for the Nationwide Mercury Prize-winning album “The Seldom Seen Kid” and the single “One Day Like This”; Kings Of Leon’s nominations are for album “Only By The Night” and U.K. No. 1 single “Sex On Fire.” The other album nominees are P.J. Harvey and John Parish for “A Woman A Man Walked By” and Paul Weller for “22 Dreams”. Weller — who won the outstanding contribution honor last year — is also nominated for best live act alongside Fleet Foxes, Leonard Cohen, Seasick Steve and Radiohead
