Top 10 Underrated Musicians

10. Shura

At number 10 Top 10 Underrated Musicians is Shura. Aleksandra Lilah Yakunina-Denton is also known by her stage name Shura and is a singer and songwriter who is doing 80s electronic music. Those who listen to her keep her songs on loop because of how infectious her songs are. Her voice is sweet but powerful which along with groovy music is really a great experience. Her debut Album “Nothing’s Real” was successful and gave her the spotlight as her album reached 13th position on UK Charts. It’s about time that she became a popular act not just in UK but also the world.

9. Kloe

At number 9 is Kloe. While most teenage pop stars give more attention to style rather than substance, Kloe has chosen to walk the alternate road. After winning hearts with her amazing tunes in her country Scotland, she is trying to take on the world stage. She has a great repertoire of songs and can sing everything from dark to moody to party songs. If Kloe even gets a fraction of the attention that some of the undeserving teen pop stars get then it will be a victory for music.

8. Holy Child

At number 8 in Top 10 Underrated Musicians is Holy Child. Holy Child is a Indie Pop duo which consists of Liz Niscito (songwriter and vocalist) and Louie (producer and multi-instrumentalist). Together these two have created some really unique music which according to them belongs to a new genre which they have called “brat pop”. Their first major success came with the song “Happy with me” which was played 100000 times in one week and became number 1 on Hype Machine’s Popular charts. Since then there was no turning back as they made their way to many “Top 10 Artists to watch out” lists and continue to get local and national recognition for their unique music. We hope that they get worldwide attention for their unique music.

7. Ella Eyre

At number 7 in Top 10 Underrated Musicians is Ella Eyre. She is one of the most promising female singers of the world who might have found success in UK but is yet to replicate it elsewhere around the world. Known for her strong vocals and singing with raw emotions, her single “Waiting All Night” in collaboration with Rudimental reached number one on UK Charts and was even awarded Brit Award for the Best Single of the Year while her debut album Feline peaked at number 4 on UK Charts. Overall she has many songs that have charted in UK and we really hope the whole world discovers the great talent that she is.

6. Louisa Allen Rose

At number 6 in Top 10 Underrated Musicians is Louisa Allen Rose. While she has been part of songs like Just One Yesterday by Fallout Boys and Clarity by Zedd that peaked at number eight on Billboard Hot 100 and even won a Grammy for Best Dance Recording. Despite her success, she hasn’t received the attention she deserves for those songs. Her looks, fashion sense and her vocal talent make her a prime candidate to become a major pop start in the future. Her debut album Glorious did well in UK where many of its singles like “Youth”, “Let Her Go Tonight” and “Holding Onto Heaven” reached the Top 20 of the charts there but back at home in America, she is yet to taste success.

5. Julian Rose Banks

At number 5 in Top 10 Underrated Musicians is Julian Rose Banks. While many female singer are louded for their exceptional vocal range, Julian’s name is often left out of that list and this does not do justice to her talent as she is among the best female singers out there. Ever since 2013, she had been a regular in on the “Artists to watch” lists and was nominated for Sounds of 2014 by the BBC and MTV Brand New Nominee in 2014, but despite that she is yet to find mainstream fame. Her voice has also drawn comparison with Ellie Goulding and Aaliyah.

4. Grizfolk

At number 4 in Top 10 Underrated Musicians is Grizfolk. Grizfolk is an alternative rock band consisting of members: Adam Roth (lead vocals, guitar), Sebastian Fritze (synthesizer, backing vocals), Brendan James (bass guitar, backing vocals) and Bill Delia (drums). They might be the new kids on the block but their unique style of mixing Americana with electronic is really catching on and this makes them a real hot property, just look at their touring dates and you would know how much in demand they are now currently.

3. Raury

At number 3 in Top 10 Underrated Musicians is Raury. Raury is one of the most exciting artists in music industry right now who mixes soul, hip hop and folk. His debut album All We Need reached 78 at Billboard Top 200, 16 on US R&B Charts, 46 on Australia Charts and 152 on UK Charts which speaks volumes about the artists considering it was his first album and his music is also not mainstream. Also unlike most other artists whose lyrics don’t have any meaning, Raury’s songs carry a deep message and are sometimes a sort of social commentary.

2. Big Grams

At number 2 in Top 10 Underrated Musicians is Big Grams. The Hip Hop genre has been saturated for a while now and Big Grams are like a breath of fresh air to the genre. This hip hop trio consists of rapper Big Boi and the electronic rock duo of Phantogram. This unusual combination made both the artist overcome the barriers of their respective genres and together create something really unique that has been described as “psyched out hip hop”. It has funk, it is smooth and you can dance on it, so basically it is everything you want it to be.

1. Rationale

At number 1 in Top 10 Underrated Musicians is Rationale. Though he has been on the music scene for only a year, he has already garnered a lot of attention from the likes of Pharell and Justin Timberlake and is a regular customer on “Ones to look out for” lists. The guy with an unforgettable voice and sure to make it big in the future, Rationale has once again bought the music back with more focus on creating emotional and impactful songs rather than making average songs but putting it on a flashy video. His music shows his devotion and honesty to his art and he really deserves more attention from the world.

These artists in our lists deserve to be taking over the world of music and everyone should listen to their songs.
