Jake Bugg

Ok so now I'm about to talk about one of the fastest rising stars in music right now. He's Jake Bugg, and he's just 18 -I just realized that he shares with same-aged Justin Bieber the initials of his name, they don't share the same talent though- he's into country music but with some very pop choruses, which is fantastic.

Not only Jake's the proof that we youngster can still make some very enjoyable songs without sinths but we can also write some deep lyrics  "fill my head with the future/fill my eyes with the sky
whole of my life I've been left behind but I've never felt more alive./ High speed conversations
speeding on down the line/looked in your eyes said the saddest goodbye but I've never felt more alive"
("Taste It"). All right it's not Kashmir or Dylan, but he's just 18!

He makes the kind of music that you'd expect from some 60 and something years old guy... or from Seth Lakeman or the La's. But actually like him or not he shows in my opinion that there's still hope for music. It's like a flower growing between the wasteland created by Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Miley Cyrus, One Direction &co.
