Biography

 

Sam Fender crafts the kind of tenacious anthemic rock that punches straight at the gut. Born and raised in 1994 in the northeastern English town of North Shields, the singer/songwriter first picked up a guitar at age 10 and began playing gigs locally as a teen to help support him and his mother. But it wasn’t until he started writing music for himself—rather than what he thought others wanted to hear—that everything started to click. That’s when he wrote his 2017 debut single, “Play God”, a propulsive, politically charged slice of indie rock. It came from a place of deep desperation, “a time where I was like, ‘I need to prove myself. I need to do something that cuts through,’” he told Apple Music. The track earned him a slot on BBC’s Sound of 2018 shortlist, which led to a deal with Polydor Records and the release of his acclaimed 2019 debut, Hypersonic Missiles, an album that channels modern-day anxiety through heartfelt heartland rock. His 2021 follow-up, Seventeen Going Under, hit even harder, pumped full of soaring arrangements and bold statements that continue to prove Fender’s power as a mighty millennial voice for the working class. - Apple Music

'Bruno' really suffered from the swift drop in popularity. Sounds good again now after going off it a bit too soon. 'Seventeen Going Under' top 10 is great. Still not tired of it.

 

Pleased Belters missed top 10 in the end too x

Seventeen Going Under :wub: my most played of 2022, fantastic to have seen this go from strength to strength. Sam needs another Top 40 hit pronto though!

Biography

 

Lost Frequencies

Felix De Laet, better known as Lost Frequencies, has soared to phenomenal success in recent times. Releasing his global smash hit ‘Are You With Me’ back in 2014 and quickly cementing himself as a name to watch, the track rapidly ascended by hitting multi-platinum status and taking the #1 spot in 18 countries. Add to this Lost Frequencies was the first Belgian artist to secure his first 5 hit singles charting at the #1 spot on the Ultratop official Belgian charts, as well as the first Belgian artist to hit #1 in the UK, he went on to release his long-awaited debut album ‘Less Is More’ in 2016. The album, with notable singles’ ‘Beautiful Life’ and ‘What Is Love 2016’ dazzled globally, certifying a future star for a new generation. Lost Frequencies also firmly established himself as one of the strongest, fastest rising talents with his debut entry in the 2017 Top 100 DJ Poll at #26; ‘highest new entry’ that year. As the accolades multiply for Lost Frequencies, counting wins for ‘Dance International’ and ‘Hit of The Year’ at the ECHO award ceremony (comparable with the U.S. Grammy's) amongst his awards, he has also become a leading light in the world of streamed music. To date his music has received over 1 billion plays and counting as every release, from his remix of Major Lazer, Justin Bieber & MØ’s ‘Cold Water’ to his most recent release ‘Crazy’ with Zonderling (already a #1 airplay hit in Belgium, Germany & Poland), continues to receive support from fans across the world. - Spotify

 

Calum Scott

Calum Scott honed his huge, honeyed pipes singing other people’s songs, but he didn’t fully find his voice until he began creating his own intimate pop vignettes. Born in 1988, in the Northern England city of Kingston upon Hull, Scott first took up the drums, while his sister Jade became the singer of the family. Eventually, Jade discovered her brother’s natural way with a fierce falsetto and chilling vibrato and signed him up for a local singing competition in 2013. He sang Paolo Nutini’s “Last Request” and won. Following that thrill of performing in front of a crowd, Scott joined Maroon 4, a Maroon 5 cover band, before tagging along with Jade at an audition for the ninth series of Britain’s Got Talent. There, with a stunning, slowed-down version of Robyn’s “Dancing On My Own,” he blew away the judges, especially the notoriously scathing Simon Cowell, who pressed the “Golden Buzzer,” sending Scott directly to the live semifinals. Nerves got the better of him in the finals, and while he didn’t win, the singer used that exposure to launch his solo career and start writing material for his 2018 debut album, Only Human. Like his showstopping Robyn cover, Scott’s original songs are both poignant and empowering, especially the swaying, gospel-tinged celebration “You Are the Reason” and the piano-powered tearjerker “No Matter What,” a raw retelling of his experience coming out to his parents. Such personal tales bring out a sincerity and soulfulness that show Scott’s songwriting to be just as moving as his voice. - Apple Music

This is a bit too pedestrian for me to love but at least lightyears ahead of Calum's 'Dancing On My Own' cover lol
