With mass media such like YouTube around, it’s harder to go unnoticed and undiscovered as long as you try to get your skills out in the world. In fact, several celebrities have started out on YouTube and then made it big.: Justin Bieber, Carly Rae Jepson and Christina Grimmie are just a few of these YouTube-to-mainstream stars. Nonetheless, there are still talented individuals floating around the internet who haven’t quite made it to that kind of fame yet, although they deserve to.it.
Anna Clendening
Genre: Pop
This girl has not only been circulating YouTube, but was also a quarterfinalist on “America’s Got Talent” in 2014. She started her YouTtube channel off with a cover of “Wagon Wheel” in 2012. Her somber music is incredibly relatable and powerful as she struggles with anxiety and depression disorders. Her music touches on subjects such as feeling like you’re disappointing your parents, finding yourself, learning to love yourself and alcoholism. My favorites of her original songs are “Who I Am” and “I Found Myself.” You can find her not only on YouTtube, but on Spotify and iTunes as well.
Alex Goot
Genre: Pop
A talented YouTube singer, Goot does creates solo covers, collaboration covers and his own original songs. It was his cover of “Beauty and a Beat” by Justin Bieber that got me into his work, along with the work of several other musicians that appear in his music videos, some of which you can find listed below. His sound is comparable to that of Five 5 Seconds of Summer and The Summer Set, and m. My favorites of his original songs include “Right Where I Belong,” “The Real You” and “Secret Girl.” All of his songs, including coversr works, can also be found on Spotify and iTunes.

Many know her as Aria from the TV show “Pretty Little Liars,” but she Hale also has an amazing voice to pair up with her acting skills. She started out singing pPop music for “A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song,” where I fell in love with her song “Bless Myself.” She has recently gone back to her roots and started releasing Country country music, which at times demonstrates a youthful summertime vibe to it.
My favorites of her new works include “You Sound Good to Me,” “Lie a Little Better” and “Red Dress,” the last of which was sung with Joe Nichols. These songs, and others, can be found on Spotify and iTunes.

This European duo sings a considerably different tune thaen all the other artists I have included on this list, but they are by no meansnone-the-less less amazing.

Another amazing voice, this girl appeared on the “X-Factor” and took ninth place.

This singer also started out through with covers on YouTube and has done many collaboration covers with several other musicians who made it on this list.
