With the popular charts being full of these sorts of acts, most of which get nothing but scorn from esteemed sites such as this, who should be getting the attention instead?
Personally I'm really enjoying a guy called Tom Baxter, very MOR but done very well. Any sugestions?

good shout on Tom Baxter

I'm really enjoying Jacob Golden, you've really got to see him live if you get the chance.
David Ford's got some strong lyrics and a charismatic voice. They're the two main chaps I like.
Stephanie Dosen's a great female singer/songwriter and I'm really enjoyin Angus & Julia Stone at the moment too


David Ford is ace...
