Good evening everyone today on Tunes For Tuesday I’m taking you back through some of the fantastic artists I’ve been lucky enough to feature this year. If you’re interested in finding new artists and discovering some fantastic new music then I definitely recommend checking out the artists below.
I’d like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to all the artists who have taken part this year and my fellow bloggers and twitch friends for all their support for this feature.
I have some fantastic artists already line up for next year so do stay tuned!
Samuel Alexander:
Sam is 27 from Melbourne in Australia. I discovered him through twitch where he streams live music four times week on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. He plays a mixture of guitar covers and some of his fabulous piano originals which are great for relaxing to. He is one of my favourite streamers on there especially as his community are so lovely and welcoming. I feel like I’ve meet some lovely people on there. My daughter loves Sam’s streams and calls him ‘the nice man in the hat’ due to the fact he always wears a beanie on stream. Sam was also nice enough to sing Happy Birthday to her which made her day!
Sam has released some truly beautiful music this year and I look forward to hearing more next year! I have out two of my favourite songs from Sam below for you to enjoy!
Plastic Sun:
Plastic Sun are a London based trio that consists of Joshua Woo, Alessandro Melchior and Keir Adamson. Their songs are all very catch and easy to listen to with a indie rock feel to them which has always been my favourite genre of music. The lyrics are very clever and often have hidden messages in them which leave you thinking about the meaning behind them for days. The front man, Joshua Woo, has an incredibly powerful voice with an amazing range that allows him to go from base to falsetto in the same song. He is also able to hold a note for a very long time which makes his performances amazing to watch. I can’t wait until we are allowed to go to live gigs as I will definitely be going to a Plastic Sun gig as soon as possible.
The Complements:
The Complement’s are made up of Greg, an L.A native, and Aleesha who grew up in Europe and Asia. Greg is a classically trained pianist and self taught guitarist while Aleesha is trained in everything Greg isn’t! They are known for their soulful vocal harmonies and charming performances. They describe themselves as ‘an award winning singer-songwriter duo who sound like they have walked off a Glee/ Disney crossover show’.
I heard about them through twitch where they stream Monday – Friday from 14h00 BST. Due to lockdown in California it has been mainly Greg streaming on his own, though Aleesha has been making surprise appearances. Their streams are always good fun to watch and I look forward to them. Greg is always very welcoming and his energy is infectious as he plays their songlist which has lots of variety in it. If you’d like to watch The Complements on twitch, the link to their channel is below.
Bethan Le Mas:
Bethan is a UK Singer Songwriter from the South of England. She is classically trained in piano and cello and taught herself how to play the guitar and Celtic harp. She’s been very busy this year and has managed to put out two albums Field Fare and One Man’s Crust which are both full of beautiful folk music.
Her streams are always great fun to hang out on as she’s also a huge bookworm and Harry Potter fan so we normally end up talking about one of those. Her music has taken a bit if a back seat at the moment as she’s gone back to university to complete a master’s degree!
How To Listen:
