10 Artists to look out for in 2021
2021 was meant to leave behind a year that we can never forget but almost a month is gone and hardly anything has changed. However, despite not having any concerts ahead there are many promising artists to look out for in 2021. Find below a personal selection to keep your hopes up and listen to the dedicated playlist on Spotify.
01. Valentin Hansen
There is not much that we know about this multidisciplinary artist managing multiple projects and based in Berlin. His music, that I fell in love with, it's a combination of the digital and analog worlds. If you give him a try, his songs will not stop playing on your Spotify dangerously transforming your mood. Exquisite!

02. Some Sprouts
Get ready for an avalanche of catchy songs and indie pop sounds with nostalgia for the 60s. The music of these five mates coming from Regensburg (Germany) is full of synths and sounds like heat and holidays and invites you to have a good time. Maybe they don't live the pop dream but they are living the dream pop and if you don't know them you’re about to love them.

03. The Snuts
They are not exactly new but 2020 has consolidated The Snuts in the complicated music scene and I believe the future holds many joys for them (obviously for us too). You will like them for the particular voice of Jack Cochrane, the magnetic guitar riffs, the good songs and tons of energy they give off in their live shows!

04. The Lathums
The Lathums are doing everything alright. So far only Covid-19 happened. With 2021 tour dates completely sold out they just need to play. So the question is not if but when. Great ones!

05. The Dunts
The Dunts are coming from Glasgow and although we may have not heard from them before, they have rapidly become one of Scotland’s hottest exports. Demanding attention with their incomparable ‘council-punk’ branded sound, the quartet are set to take the world by storm.

06. Baby Queen
Born in Durban (South Africa) and now based in London, 23-year-old Bella Latham aka Baby Queen is a multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter singing about the whirlwind life of Instagram influencers and fashion parties she found herself immersed in some years ago. A pungent satire that sounds like Grunge Pop for the Gen Z.

07. Coach Party
Coach Party is a four piece band from the Isle of Wight with infectious songs and witty lyrics. Like it happened with other bands such as Wolf Alice, Jungle and Mumford & Sons, it's the label ‘Chess Club’ who has released their first songs. Uncomplicated indie rock to have fun.

08. Sorry
Friends since they first met in the School, they used to make music separately and compete between them. When they joined forces, everything seemed to fit together and after a long time playing in London clubs, they built a reputation on the city’s underground circuit and today have everyone talking about them. Their music has many different influences and I can’t wait for 2021 without restrictions to see them live.

09. Kynsy
Impossible not to think about The Strokes, don’t you think? But 23-year-old multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and producer Ciara Lindsey AKA Kynsy may be much more than a reminiscent of the garage sound of the New Yorkers. She has developed her own songwriting rules, experimenting with sound boundaries and genres. Very cool one to follow closely!

10. The Flavians
They say it was after sharing a bunk in a hostel in Berlin when the band really started to become what Flavians are today and we can only be thankful of that internationality of the city. Inspired from bands such as The Beatles, Grateful Dead, and The Beach Boys, they set out to join the warm, nostalgic sounds of the 60s with the frantic, hedonistic energy of Berlin.
