7 New artists you should be listening to this year

The new artists I have been listening to recently that I think deserve more appreciation for their music!


We all wish we had discovered Taylor Swift when she was handing out her demo CDs in Nashville as a teenager or discovered Gracie Abrams during her YouTube and Soundcloud days. So, here are the next artists you should be looking out for and claim yourself as an original fan.


I have made a playlist on Spotify so you can easily find all of their music!!

1. Nicole Amoroso


If you know me then you know me then you know that I am Nicole's biggest fan. I started listening to her when Seventeen was released and I have been obsessed ever since. If you listen to Olivia Rodrigo, Sabrina Carpenter, Gracie Abrams, Taylor Swift (especially if you a 1989 girlie) then Nicole is for you!! You can find her music on most streaming platforms, she currently has 4 singles out: Favourite, Mess u made, Seventeen! and Stupid (my personal favourite). She just announced her debut EP called "Radiohead" which is released October 27th (the same day as 1989 Taylor's version, we are so lucky`!). She also

announced two more songs that come out December 1st called Glad ur good, I'm not and Winter Child and she is planning an album for next year.

If you aren't listening to Nicole you are really missing out, her music is a perfect mix between Olivia and Taylor but also has her own uniqueness to it, it's incredible. Also, her voice perfectly matches her music, listen to favourite and you will know what I mean, her voice is so beautiful and calming.


2. Elizabeth Wong


Elizabeth Wong has to be one of my favourite singers at the moment. In this past week I have had he music on repeat it's that good! If you are looking for someone to claim yourself a fan of before they get famous she is perfect!! She is super sweet with her fans and she goes live on TikTok or Instagram regularly where we all have a chat and sing along it's so cute! She currently has 7 singles and 2 EPs released but her new song 'she's losing control!' is out October 20th. If you listen to Gracie Abrams, Phoebe Bridgers, Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo and Conan Gray then you should give her a listen!! My favourite song of her has to be Thieves or Forest of Secrets you should listen to them. She is unbelievably underrated so go show her some more recognition, she deserves to be working at the same level as Gracie and Olivia!!


3. Sophia Petro

Sophia Petro is the new pop princess. She is an Australian singer/songwriter who recently released her debut EP "The 11th Hour". When I tell you this is one of the best debut EPs I am not joking . Rose Glow is an incredibly beautiful and fun song and is definitely worth a listen!! If you enjoy Maisie Peter's music then you should listen to Sophia she has a beautiful, unique voice and is a very talented songwriter. The production on her music is also amazing it adds so much more depth into the music. It's not just her music that is beautiful, the cover art and overall aesthetic of her music matches perfectly. I am the kind of person that needs their playlists to look pretty so I really appreciate when people's music looks and sounds beautiful!! Stream The 11th Hour now <3


4. Two of the same

Two of the same are made up of two sisters (I think they are twins) from Manchester!! If you want to be THE original fan you should start listening to them now because they only have 28 monthly listeners on Spotify and deserve so much more attention!! The have one single out called Evergreen and I cannot tell you how beautiful this song is, its so unbelievably perfect and the lyrics are so amazing!! Everyone should go listen to Evergreen now <3



5. Vivienne Artur

You might have heard of Viv before if you are on fangirl tik tok but she is criminally underrated. Her music is very Gracie Abrams-esque and her song writing is beautiful. She is such a talented and hard working artist and deserves to be at the same level of Gracie Abrams and similar artists!! She is also very interactive with her fans and is such a sweet person. My favourite song from her has to be Burning Bridges it is my current obsession and is on a lot of my playlists I adore it! She currently has an EP 'Everything I Am' out and two other singles out Nothings Forever and Needing Me. Her music is definitely worth a listen!!


6. Alice Shone

This is someone else you might of heard of before but never actually listened to. But of you haven't heard of Alice before you a really missing out, her music is so relaxing and beautiful she is on all my studying/reading playlists. if you are a fan of Gracie Abrams and Billie Eilish's quieter music then you would really like Alice Shone. Her most recent single is 'Static' which came out 24th March 2023 and she has 6 other singles. One of my favourite songs at the moment and is on a lot of my playlists is Ocean Call, my love for this song I can't even begin to explain, just listen to it and you will know what I mean!!


7. Josie Beth

I started listening to Josie when her new single 'Meadow' came out 28th August!! She is so talented and her voice is beautiful. Listen to Meadow I promise you will fall in love with it!! She has her new single and self-titled debut EP (which was released July 2022) out right now, all her music is definitely worth a listen and I can't wait to see what else she has to show us!!
