Okay, so we have threads covering amps, speakers, DACs, systems, stands etc. How about one covering the more important topic of music. Lets stick to artists for this one.
Must be: "Current generation" (defined as teens to fourties). So no Springsteen, FleetwoodMack, Pink Floyd, Jimmy Hendricks etc. Also they must have achieved relative commercial success (open to interpretation) but no Youtube cover artists with 100 subscribers to their channel. Put in a link if you can so we can all experience the music.
My current favourites:
- Ed Sheeran. Odd looking fellow with a voice that is not particularly powerful but yet very melodic. He can write a fantastic song and can sound like a million bucks when it is just his voice and the 3/4 size guitar that he carries around.

- James Bay. Brilliant guitarist, brilliant lyricist, brilliant vocalist.

- Pink. Posses a fantastic husky voice that most people envy. Great vocal control and range and writes good songs (whilst some of them are a bit too rowdy for my taste)

- Kurt Nilsen. Possibly has the best voice on the planet at the moment IMHO. Achieved great fame when he won the Norwegian version of Pop Idols but seem to prefer a low key Scandinavian lifestyle. His tour and albums with Fuentes, Lind and Holm are remarkable and their rendition of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah remains the best I have heard.

- 2Cellos. Two okes from the Baltics, bot classically trained cellists who plays everything from Bach to ACDC.
