12. Ella Eyre
Collaborations with established artists have always been a popular way for up and coming artists to introduce themselves to the public, giving them the opportunity to source new fans through exposure to individuals unaware of their existence. Nineteen year-old Ella Eyre couldnt have asked for a more successful debut release, reaching number one with Waiting All Night, an upbeat track that partnered her with drum and bass quarter Rudimental. Fellow list entrants Bastille have also worked with the youngster on No Angels, a somewhat melancholic piece that incorporates dialogue from Alfred Hitchcocks Psycho, though it remains to be seen if this will be released as a single. Eyres debut EP, 'Young Forever', is scheduled for release in June and should sell well given her current momentum, allowing her to flourish without the crutch of an already successful collaborator. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M97vR2V4vTs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87wvrnufZ6U
