Out of the United Kingdom, we’ve got a new Taylor Swift-style pop/country artist Catherine McGrath, not to mention a unique cover from the boys of The Vamps. Over on the United States side of things, there’s an original song from the cast of the TV show ‘STAR’, as well as new music from 2016 hitmakers Kehlani and Bebe Rexha.
