Recommended If You Like Taylor Swift: Emerging Artists in Pop & Indie Music

This playlist contains our recommendations for pop and indie artists with under a million monthly listeners who you might like if you like Taylor Swift. We’ve broken the playlist down by each of Taylor Swift's albums, doing our best to feature artists whose sounds and styles align with the vibe of each era. Is there an artist you would reassign to a different album? An artist you think should be added to the playlist? Let us know in the comments! This playlist was created prior to the release of ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ and so we don’t currently have a section for it. We’re planning an update soon though. If there are any artists who you’d recommend for that album, share your thoughts below! We've also had the privilege of interviewing several of the incredible artists featured in this playlist.

FRXDAY Talks with Alex Johnston

In this installment of “FRXDAY Talks With…”, get to know more about Alex Johnston. Johnston is a prolific singer-songwriter producing from his home in Everett, Washington. Inspired by the sonic spirituality of Sigur Ros, the abstract adventurism of Bon Iver, and the pop sentimentality of Coldplay, Alex Johnston’s music has been described as “deeply introspective, uplifting pensive, motivating and self-inquiring” as you look into “an aural kaleidoscope taking you to an ethereal plane,” guiding you with “a heartbreakingly and beautifully haunting voice” as you begin “a pilgrimage into the unknown, a journey that will leave you longing for more”. Intro & Outro Song: "Surprise Nostalgia" by Alex Johnston.
