Jake Bugg
Meet the anti-Bieber Jake Bugg 18 year old clìfton kid singer songwriter has bit of a negative outlook on modern music ànd x factòr storming the charts but whats New. The album of jake bugg released last week we got ourselves a copy and it different from anything out there today. Bit of country in there a some folk rock. Think Johnny Cash meets Oasis cause hes that Good. The minute i heard his track ‘Taste it’ your hooked you can tell he is the next big thing. Every tune has its own stamp on it from lighting bolt two fingers simple as this, trouble town and the track that shows of Jake buggs distinct spin on things with ‘fire’ bieber is about to get batted out of the park with a guitar with his less glamourised and more realistic take on being a teenager! We can’t wait to see him in Belfast next year!

Make Sure you keep your eye out for these two in the new year, they have already provided been nominated for a Brit Award earlier this year but that is all you know at the minute about the pair Well AlunaGeorge is a Electronic Pop Duo consistsing of of members Aluna Francis (vocals) and George Reid (production). You might even say they sound like a Calvin Harris effect crossover with a urban isque Lily Allen/Kylie Minogue . Not like that is a bad thing I’m just saying they make a lasting impression. Oh and not to forget The duo had also been nominated for the Sound of 2013 poll.
Arlissa
Have you heard the new track ‘ Hard to Love Somebody’ yet? featuring the amazing vocal talents of Arlissa and the catchiest rap ever from Nas, No I’,m not just name dropping these people seriously your hooked once you hear this song it is really unusual to hear this type of vocal on a rap track so when Nas collaborates with an artist he picks to good’uns first Amy Winehouse on Cherrywine now this from Arlissa wow! I mean there is just that flow of her voice its like her vocal was made for that rhythm of the song. 2013 will be a good year no doubt can’t wait for an album from this girl.
