Jess Glynne is a huge worldwide artist and for me, is one of the first artists I go to for feel good summer music. She has such a unique voice which makes her stand out from the crowd. Below are just a few of her top hits, checkout her YouTube channel for more amazing music – especially the live ones!

I am truly amazed that Rationale hasn’t had a number one yet, his voice use of instruments and his compositions are so unique and so fresh. I am addicted to his creative melodies and feel good tracks, have a listen below!

Last for this week is another well known artist, George Ezra. He has a very similar tone to another pop artist, Ed Sheeran but I prefer George – I find his compositions have a bigger variety, so I can listen to much more of him and still be engaged. Let me know in the comments what your opinion is.
