Big in 2020 (Male Solo Artists)

It's a new year and here are the male solo artists we think will make an impact on the music industry in 2020:

1. Danny Dearden
What a year 2019 was for British singer/songwriter Danny Dearden. His vocals featured on 8 different songs and fans were also able to experience his vocals live with the great performances he gave.

Here are just some of the stand-out tracks released this year:

Danny lent his voice to the track 'Different Kind of Love' from Swedish DJ/Producer Erlandsson.



German Duo Aexcit chose Danny to record his vocals for their song 'Good To Go'.



French DJ Michael Calfan has worked with Danny Dearden on the song 'It's Wrong' in 2018 and he wanted to work with Danny Dearden again in 2019. The song they released is called 'Could Be You'.





In 2020 Danny will be releasing more great songs and and performing and we think he will be even more successful!



2. Victor Crone
Victor Crone is a Swedish singer and in 2019 he gained the attention of the world thanks to representing Estonia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2019. He song 'Storm' is a catchy track with that Eurovision Dance/pop style that we love.



Crone continued to release tracks in 2019 which were just as catchy:

Syn Cole collaborated with Victor on their track 'Discovery'.



The next track to feature Victor's vocals was the Tungelvaag Raaban track 'Take Me Away'



The final track Victor released in 2019 was 'This Can't Be Love'. The song is a beautiful pop ballad that showcases his stunning vocal range.


Victor Crone is currently competing to have the right to represent his native Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020.



3. Alex Row
Alex Row is a singer from Spain and in 2019 he entertained social media by uploading some amazing cover versions.

When Alex released his cover of 'Dance Money' from Tones and I, we were just so excited that Alex is still showcasing his stunning vocals and this cover was amazing,



Another cover he uploaded is 'Tusa' from Karol G feat. Nicki Minaj.

His song 'Do What You Want' and his Adele 'Hello' cover which he released in 2016 are getting more streams on Spotify too.



We really hope that more people get to experience Alex Row's talent and he gets the opportunities to showcase his talent.
As a singer and a dancer, 2020 could be Alex's year!



4. Mario Jefferson
Mario Jefferson is a Spanish singer who has experienced success signed to a label as well as releasing music independently.

Here are some highlights of Mario's career so far:
His latest sing is a Spanish song called 'El Que No Llora No Mama'.

In 2016 Mario released an English song called 'Cadillac'

One of Mario's top memories of his career so far was when he got to release a song with American singer JoJo. The song 'Disaster' was recorded again to be a Spanglish (Spanish and English).


Mario still likes to perform live as well as upload cover videos and 2020 could just be the year where the world gets to hear more of his amazing songs.



5. Jack Vidgen
The Australian singer Jack Vidgen won Australia's Got Talent as a 15 year old. After the pressures of being in the limelight and trolling on social media, he took some years away until he decided to audition for The Voice Australia.

As soon as he performed the the song 'Hello' from Adele, the world knew that Jack was back and ready!


Jack is currently in the line-up to win the chance to represent Australia in the Eurovision 2020 with his new song 'I Am King, I Am Queen'.



Anything could happen in 2020 for Jack Vidgen but with his stunning vocals, we know he is going to smash it!



6. Dalton Harris
Dalton Harris is the winner of The X Factor 2018 and it is no surprise he won with his angelic vocals.

After winning The X Factor, Dalton released a cover of 'The Power of Love' featuring James Arthur.




Dalton performed his new single 'Cry' on The X Factor: The Band.


We hope Syco Music get it right with Dalton Harris and give him the promotion he deserves but with his amazing vocals, Dalton Harris will be a name on people's lips all around the world.



7. MKY
MKY started his music journey audition to be part of the group known now as In Real Life. During his time on Boyband, he showcased fantastic vocals and was a fan favourite.
After the show he joined some of the other contestants from the show to form the group 4th Ave.
MKY then decided to leave the group to focus on his solo career.

MKY released his first solo single called 'On My Chest.



MKY already has live shows lined up and we are hoping to hear more songs from this talented guy in 2020.
