The ICM Awards have returned once more after another game-changing year of incredible Indie music. Here at ICM, we’re all about giving the spotlight to the artists that we think you should be listening too. In the past four years, we’ve given the likes of Tom Grennan, Tom Walker, Sundara Karma and even Rag‘n’Bone Man the chance to shine on our platform and they’ve gone on to be some of the most successful artists the UK has to offer. Now that we come close to the end of 2018, it’s time for you guys to let us know who is worthy of the top spots via the voting links below.
