Records

Glass Animals' achievements are anchored by the extraordinary success of "Heat Waves." The song set a Billboard Hot 100 record for the longest climb to number one, taking 59 weeks to reach the summit. It also topped Australia's charts and was voted number one on the Triple J Hottest 100 of 2020. By September 2022, the track had surpassed two billion streams on Spotify, making it one of the most-streamed songs of all time. The band's two MPG Awards recognize their self-produced work on How to Be a Human Being, an album that also earned a Mercury Prize shortlist. Their Grammy and Brit Award nominations further underscore their impact on both sides of the Atlantic.

AwardsGlass Animals have won two MPG Awards: UK Album of the Year and Self Producing Artist of the Year, both in 2018 for How to Be a Human Being. They have also been nominated for a Mercury Prize, two Brit Awards, and a Grammy, but those nominations did not result in wins.
