Charlie Simpson
Charlie was the lead singer of the band Busted, you might have heard of them their song 'Year 3000' or 'That's what I go to school for'. Busted broke up because Charlie wanted to pursue a career in rock music. He then joined a band called Fightstar, although these are my favourite band I'm not going to talk about these, they announced the band's going on hiatus for 2010-2011 for Charlie to do some solo stuff. Charlie's first official album is out on the 15th of August! Here's a video of his newest single off the new album.
You can preorder the album here
Graham Stookey
Graham is an 18 year old guy that started a youtube channel in hope that someone would like his stuff and he'd get a record deal. He recently released an EP with four songs on it, these four songs are not on his youtube channel. The one song is a cover of 'Jonah', this is the song that really drew the majority of his viewers to his channel. Here's the video;
