7. Caylee Hammack – ‘If It Wasn’t For You’
One of the most captivating voices to emerge this year was Caylee Hammack with her debut album ‘If It Wasn’t For You’. Packing more fire into her vocal delivery than we’ve heard from any artist in a long time, Hammack provided anthems such as ‘Redhead’ featuring Reba McEntire, the punchy ‘Just Friends’ and the beautifully fragile ‘Small Town Hypocrite’. This album deserves a lot more love than it’s received so far.
