Zane Lowe and Apple Music have named South African pop star Tyla, British rock band the Last Dinner Party and música Mexicana hitmaker Xavi as artists to watch in 2024.

Lowe’s “24 for ’24” — a roster curated by Lowe and his music programmer Jeremy Degan to spotlight rising acts for the new year — also names viral rap star Karrahboo, R&B singer Maeta, the hip-hop duo Flyana Boss and New York-based producer and rapper Cash Cobain, among others.

The Last Dinner Party, like Tyla, is expected to make its Coachella debut later this April.

The rock band won BBC’s Sound of 2024 earlier this year, and they just recently announced a North American tour.

Nineteen-year-old Xavi climbed his way up the Billboard charts with “La Víctima,” his breakthrough single, and a pair of collaborative singles —”Poco a Poco” with Los Dareyes de la Sierra and “Modo DND” with Tony Aguirre. His song “La Diabla” also peaked at No. 22 on the Billboard Hot 100.
