Future Stars: Leon Bridges (Columbia)
Taken from this week’s Future Pop mailer. Click here to subscribe. Leon Bridges is yet another male US singer-songwriter, but he’s not competing with acts like Tor Miller – he’s definitely in his own lane. He makes old-school soul music which sounds totally authentic, and that’s what makes it cool. His most talked-about song Coming… Continue reading Future Stars: Leon Bridges (Columbia)
Future Stars: Tor Miller (Glassnote)
Taken from this week’s Future Pop mailer. Click here to subscribe. I haven’t often listened to Zane Lowe’s evening show on Radio 1 (which ends its 13-year run this month), as most of the music isn’t to my taste, but considering I’ve discovered some brilliant artists on the occasions I have tuned in, maybe I… Continue reading Future Stars: Tor Miller (Glassnote)

Taken from this week’s Future Pop mailer. Click here to subscribe. It might seem strange to my long-term readers to see Tove Styrke here, as we’ve all been fans for five years. But she’s no longer a teenager, and her new music is coming from a different perspective, with a new team in place and… Continue reading Future Stars: Tove Styrke (Sony RCA)
Future Stars: Hurricane Love (Playground Music)
Taken from this week’s Future Pop mailer. Click here to subscribe. There’s a type of uplifting, inviting camaraderie that you only find in Scandinavian girl/boy bands – Alphabeat, I’m From Barcelona, Alcazar… and ABBA of course! Hurricane Love are the latest group to carry on that tradition. I’ve known of them since 2012, when singer… Continue reading Future Stars: Hurricane Love (Playground Music)
Future Stars: Aurora (Decca/Universal)
Taken from this week’s Future Pop mailer. Click here to subscribe.

Future Stars: Real Lies (Marathon)
Taken from this week’s Future Pop mailer. Click here to subscribe. There are a lot of people referencing the ‘90s in fashion and music these days, but you don’t see many taking it as far as Real Lies. Unfortunately, their inspiration comes from the early part of the ‘90s I’m glad I was too busy… Continue reading Future Stars: Real Lies (Marathon)
Future Stars: Phoebe Ryan (Unsigned)
Taken from this week’s Future Pop mailer. Click here to subscribe. Launching a new pop artist without a major label or a TV platform is pretty tough, but Phoebe Ryan is setting a great example. She’s spent the past few years getting ready, so that when her music finally went live online it had the… Continue reading Future Stars: Phoebe Ryan (Unsigned)
