Lewis Capaldi<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Lewis Capaldi<\/strong> is one of those success stories<\/strong> which doesn\u2019t stay in history books as a shooting star. Not many people knew about this 23-year-old Scottish singer-songwriter<\/strong> before his massive hit \u201dSomeone You Loved<\/strong>\u201d which has now over 1,1 billion streams<\/strong>\u00a0on Spotify<\/strong> only. He almost won the song of the year Grammy for that song but lost it to Billie Eilish\u2019s<\/strong> \u201dBad Guy<\/strong>\u201d. However this very ordinary guy from Scottland is worth to follow<\/strong> as we can expect great stuff from him!<\/p>\n

Kaash Paige<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"Success has come quick for this 19-year-old R&B and Soul artist<\/strong>. Her hit \u201dLove Songs<\/strong>\u201d went viral in TikTok<\/strong> which also gave some boost for her debut album \u201dParked Car Convos<\/strong>\u201d. You might think her success won\u2019t last, but this young artist has been making music with her fathers production equipment<\/strong> since she was a child<\/strong>. At first scared to make her own music but after experimenting on her own she quickly turned her\u00a0hobby to a dream<\/strong>. As this young star is now rising, the best word to describe her is \u201dorganic<\/strong>\u201d and we can see her doing her own thing<\/strong> which is exactly the thing she will be remembered of.<\/p>\n

Dayglow<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"Bedroom pop<\/strong> has never been hotter than now\u00a0and Dayglow<\/strong> (aka Sloan Struble<\/strong>) knows it.

The album has been streamed nearly 50 million times on Spotify<\/strong>. Due to his success Struble has put his college education on a break to make some more fantastic music for us. Can\u2019t wait to see what comes next from him!<\/p>\n

Jade Bird<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"Strapped with an acoustic guitar and a confidently raw and robust voice, is the amazing Jade Bird<\/strong>. South Wales singer passionate about traditional songwriting<\/strong>. Broken relationships and heartbreak are not uncommon in her country style story driven lyrics<\/strong>, but her sound is far from traditional.

Dee White<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"Country music has changed a lot from the early days, but Dee White<\/strong> remains somewhat loyal<\/strong> to the original guitar-driven Southern Country. This Alabama<\/strong> native comes to the picture in well-tailored suits and with music that resembles the old country-greats<\/strong>. His latest album \u201dSouthern Gentleman<\/strong>\u201d was produced by The Black Keys<\/strong> frontman Daniel Auerbach<\/strong> and also published by his label Easy Eye Sound<\/strong>, which you can tell.
