Hiiiiii! So, today i wanna post about music. But, today i wanna post about the ARTIST not the MUSIC.

As you know, music these days is full of autotune and dance techno or computer music and a lot of musician or band that have an ACTUAL talent but they are never popular. Sooo, today i want to make a list of musician/band that actually really good but not a lot of people know about it.

1. Artist Vs Poet
Artist Vs Poet is a power pop/pop punk band from Forth Worth, Texas formed in late 2007. The band members is Joe Kirkland, Jason Dean & Dylan Stevens. In 2007-20011 the band actually consists of 5 members, Tarcy Thomason, Joe Westbrook, Craig Calloway, Joe Kirkland & Jason Dean. In 2008 they were signed by Fearless Records.



But 3 of them are leaving the band so there's only Joe Kirkland & Jason Dean, and a new rhythm guitarist was added named Dylan Stevens. He met with the band through a friend of theirs. 
After many changes in the band, it was announced by Fearless Records that Artist Vs Poet were no longer signed to the label. When i heard the news, i'm a little dissapointed because the band actually made a pretty good music even though they only have 3 members. On 2013, They released a full-band album entitled Keep Your Secrets. The songs in the album is really good. My favorite is Keep Your Secrets and Miscommunicate. If you want to know a lot more about the band and the music you can see their youtube video 'artistvspoet'.



2. Gabrielle Aplin
Gabrielle Aplin is an English singer-songwriter from Sutton Benger, Wiltshire. I know her from the TV. I'm watching [V] channel at my home and i saw her video clip Please Don't Say You Love Me. 

And after i watch her video i started to look on the internet all of her music. If you a type of person that like Folk, Pop or Indie, you can listen to her, because her music is that kind of genre. I love her new album English Rain especially The Power Of Love.



A lot of British people probably know her because she is British, but i think she didn't became worldwide sensation like Justin Bieber (HAHA) or Taylor Swift which is sad because she have a very beautiful voice and she is really pretty.


3. 78Violet (also known as Aly & AJ)
78violet is an American pop rock band consisting of sisters Aly and AJ Michalka. Of course you know them, they became really huge on 2004-2008 i guess. The first time i know about them because of their single Potential Breakup Song and i kinda started to look up to their music. 

I think Aly & AJ should be famous right now. I love all of their songs and have listened to it since 2005 but how come they are so not popular around the world ? I've been looking for their album in all music stores in my country Indonesia but all music stores in my country don't sell their album because their not familiar with them. I just watched their new single Hothouse, it's so haunting and beautiful at the same time! You guys should check it out! :)
