So what happens when you team up rock stars, record industry execs and the odd ex Big Brother contestant in Camden's Roundhouse? Well they politely eat their dinner and cheer for the winners if they are at the BT Digital Music Awards.

This year saw British Sea Power, Iglu &
Hartly, Sam Beeton and Ida Maria perform. But the audience, which included Mathew Horne amongst guests, couldn't get enough of Beardyman. The beatboxer stole the show and received a standing ovation.

This is London caught up backstage with one of the bands nominated for the Artist of the Year title, British Sea Power.
