I can't stop listening to ...... two artists that remind me a lot of Amy Winehouse

So here are two artists, one brand new (in fact they don't even have an album out) and another that I rediscovered on my trip to Durham this past weekend. The first two tracks are by an artist named Nikki and Rich. They're in the process of recording an album, but so far, I really love the sound (and Nikki's look). Some may say that it's a rip-off of Winehouse and Ronson, but even if there was anything wrong with that, I think they have a slightly different sound. The two tracks, Cat and Mouse, and Next Best thing have been getting constant burn since I first heard them. The second artist is older, in fact her album came out last year. Adele, although sharing her native country with Winehouse and similar vocals, has an album with much less of a doo-wop and jazz influence. This album had been collecting dust until a friend in Durham put me back on her. Enjoy
