The geeks at the NextBigSound firm have released the top 15 fastest rising artists on the internet, according to their calculations.  Here they are:

1. Funky
2. Solenn
3. Filligar
4. Sway Dasafo
5. Deuce
6. Mandinga
7. Anathema
8. Rose Falcon
9. Shahinaz
10. Andrew Garcia
11. Lindsey Stirling
12. Disclosure
13. Santa Leja
14. LA PEPA
15. Thaeme

Where else can  you find a compassionate violinist, a scandalous masked artist, and an artist in the top five with under 1000 fans on Facebook? That’s what I love about this chart. Kudos to the guys at NextBigSound for putting it together.
