Over the years I’ve linked to a number of amateur musicians who sing and play their hearts out on YouTube in the hopes that somebody out there will notice. I recently stumbled upon one who managed to turn a popular YouTube channel into a career.
Esmée Denters is a Dutch singer-songwriter who started posting songs (covers, mostly) on YouTube in the summer of 2006. She caught the attention of an artist manager who arranged an audience with Justin Timberlake. A smitten Timberlake signed her to his own label and had her open for a leg of his international tour.
