[EOTY 2024] Indieheads Top 24 Debuts of 2024
Good morning yall, hope everyone had wonderful holidays!
It's finally time for us to wind down our listmas season, and there's no better way for us to kick off the beginning of the year than with our top debuts of 2024. This list was created over a few weeks of community voting, with hundreds of r/indieheads users participating. For more details on how this list came about, you can take a look at the voting thread.
The main idea here is to highlight some of the newcoming artists that our community is most excited for. You'll see some artists who put out their first album, or maybe their first EP, or some who may have trickled out songs for years before finally putting out their long-awaited larger project. It's a chance to celebrate what's new and discover something you may not have heard yet!
And now, here's our top 24 debuts of 2024!
