Bombay Bicycle Club

Bombay Bicycle Club are and English indie rock band from Crouch End, London who are definitely worth listening to. Here we are, four years, three albums and 10 singles into their career and they have no where near enough of the credit or fan base in which they deserve. They have a distinct sound that combines the upbeat base and melodies of Vampire Weekend with the overlaying sound of The Killers. Their most recent album 'A Different Kind Of Fix' is a band on alignment of everything that Bombay Bicycle Club do best, the music perfectly portrays the powerful stylistic elements that they have integrated into their soulful lyrics. I would recommend listening to their incredible single 'Shuffle', the song is a huge upbeat summer hit, I can guarantee that you will have it stuck in your head for hours.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDuif301F-8

Band of Horses

Band of Horses are an incredible rock band from Seattle, America. Their music is filled with full-throated harmonies and a gentle melancholy that gives them their own unique sound. I predict that given a few years this fantastic band will have risen to the same popularity as Kings of Leon. For all the pitch-perfect retro charm that Band of Horses possess, they play a significant part in the indie country-rock revival along with the likes of Fleet Foxes. Three albums in, Band of Horses still have masses to give...while they create comfort in their familiarity, it can't be argued that this band has a specific brand. I recommend that you listen to their hauntingly fascinating single 'The Funeral'.

Ben Howard

If you haven't yet listened to Ben Howard your only excuse can be that you have been 'living under a rock for the last few months', this rising British talent is set to crack America along with the likes of Adele and Mumford and Sons. His captivating and sensual voice has drawn similarities to Bon Iver, his debut album 'Every Kingdom' is absolutely fantastic, each song is as incredible as the last. Howard's originality comes from his raw intimate lyrics wrapped around strong melodies and exquisite rhythms. This beautiful combinations of the delicate guitar mixed with Howard's haunting vocals is particularly enticing, particularly when combined with the later inclusion of a cello. Through his music Howard, still only in his early twenties, proves that he has the maturity and definitely the ability of his UK folk predecessors. This album is so incredible that there is no excuse for it not to be on your iPod, I can guarantee that the buzz surrounding Ben Howard will only get bigger, this super talented singer-songwriter isn't going anywhere. I recommend you either listening to his beautiful songs 'Only Love' and 'Keep Your Head Up' both from his debut album 'Every Kingdom'.

Birdy

Jasmine van den Bogaerde, also known by her stage name Birdy, at the age of just 16 is a successful musician who is definitely one to watch for the future. Her debut self titles album, is filled with haunting, clever and stripped back covers of well known songs by the likes of Bon Iver, The XX and Cherry Ghost. Her unique and soulful voice injects raw emotion into songs that are written by men twice her age. Her choice in songs to cover to work with her style and voice is impeccable, she turns the works of Bon Iver and The XX into her own songs, making them unrecognisable. You can really see that Birdy can only grow in talent, and we can definitely expect more from her...

The Lonsdale Boys Club

Lonsdale Boys Club are a three piece rock-pop band from London, their sound has in the past been described as a "fusion of disco funk, rock, soul and a little bit of 90's Brit Pop." The band name 'The Lonsdale Boys Club originates from the road in West London on which they built their own recording studio.  The Lonsdale Boys Club are just one summer feel good hit after another. In each of the songs the melody and chorus are bound to be stuck in your head for days on end, leaving you with their song's on repeat for hours. If you're a fan of Two Door Cinema Club, The Kooks or Foster The People, The Lonsdale Boys Club are definitely for you. I recommend listening to their newest single 'Ready To Go' featuring a cameo from Caggie Dunlop for those sharp eyed viewers...  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2iJqEKy03I

Sunday Girl

This incredible singer-songwriter is definitely one to watch out for; she is a strong addition to the wave of synth-friendly female artists including Bat For Lashes and Florence and The Machine. Against the speculation the stage name Sunday Girl doesn't trace back to the Blondie song, though is a reference to her part time job at a pet store as a youngster. I would recommend listening to her unique music, not only is it not mass produced like the Britney's or Cheryl's of the world but, as well as being incredibly put together, it is fun music. Sunday Girl is an artist who doesn't take herself too seriously, the music is perfect for the summer and makes you want to stop what you are doing and dance. Her wispy and whimsical voice has similarities to Ellie Goulding, so if you are a Goulding fan Sunday Girl is perfect for you. I recommend listening to my personal favourite song, Stop Hey...

Metronomy

Metronomy are an electronic music group from Devon, formed back in 1999. They have toured extensively with other similar artists such as Bloc Party and Klaxons. Their most recent album 'The English Rivera' has brought them back onto people's radar. They have swapped the quirks they were known and hated for and replaced them with accessible music. This album has resemblances to a modern day take on the Cure's early music, while their modern take adds a more catchy and upbeat quality. Listen to Metronomy if you are a fan of The Rapture or Klaxons. They are definitely worth listening to, I recommend listening to Heartbreaker....

Kyla La Grange

With comparisons to Florence and The Machine and Kate Bush flying around it's about time you listening to the majestic sounds of Kyla La Grange. This singer-songwriter from Watford has just released her debut album and it is well worth listening to. Her music involves a mixture of loud guitar riffs that do wonders of amplifying and complimenting her captivating and unique voice. The album is filled to the brim of anthems just waiting to escape and get out. I recommend listening to Vampire Smile...
