Top 10 Best Teenage Singers

Which singers are or were the best singers while in their teenage years?
The Top Ten
1 Jackie Evancho Jacqueline Marie "Jackie" Evancho is an American classical crossover singer who gained wide recognition at an early age. Since 2009, she has issued an EP and eight albums, including a platinum and gold album, and three Billboard 200 top 10 debuts. Evancho's latest album 'The Debut', was her eighth consecutive release to reach No. 1 on the Billboard Classical Albums chart. In 2017, Evancho performed the U.S. national anthem at the presidential inauguration of Donald Trump and became the youngest person ever to perform a concert series at Café Carlyle.

Jackie, quietly and methodically, continues to raise the bar on her singing abilities. The latest album, "Awakening" showcases a voice that continues to grow stronger while her 'genius' interpretive skills are on full display. To those who question her singing skills, please direct your comments to the 'hitman' David Foster, a legendary musical producer and writer who continues to invite Jackie to appear in major singing events such as a Night With Andrea Bocelli in Thailand this April... Not bad for a 14 year old.

Without a doubt the most beautiful voice ever recorded. Jackie not only lives in the song she is singing, she is the only vocal artist who can reach out and bring her listeners into the song to experience music like they never have before.
I am a combat harden Recon Marine, and Jackie is the only singer ever to bring tears to my eyes, by lifting my sprite, and touching my heart and soul.

Born April 9, 2010 almost 15 years old.

Now at age 15, Jackie has logged in 5 years of singing professionally. She has recorded several albums (another one due in 2016) and three PBS specials on DVD. With over 100 solo concerts and numerous stellar guest appearances, including duets with industry greats, Jackie is among the top teenage performers in the music world.

Jackie is 15 years old, immensely talented and also a stellar individual. She's modest, down-to-earth and caring. She has accomplished more in the past 5 years (best-selling albums, PBS concert DVDs, special events, charity performances) than any other teen singer out there and deserves to top this list.

2 Lorde Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O'Connor (born 7 November 1996), better known by her stage name Lorde, is a singer-songwriter from New Zealand. She released her first EP "The Love Club" in 2012 and gained worldwide popularity with her song "Royals" at the age of 16. With "Pure Heroine" (2013), "Melodrama" (2017) and "Solar Power" (2021), Lorde has released three studio albums so far. She is is known for songs such "Royals", "Team", "Green Light" and the single "Yellow Flicker Beat", produced for the soundtrack of Frances Lawrence's "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1" in 2014.

I think unlike so many teenage artists at the moment, Lorde is a good role model for all teens. She is a feminist meaning she supports the equal rights of men and woman. She is opinionated and constantly speaks her mind and she isn't fake. She is authentic and unique and doesn't care what people think of her self... Calling herself a creep all the time. She believes that everyone is flawed and that's ok ( as seen from her photos on Instagram with acne. ) Lorde's lyrics are also really relevant and meaningful in our society.
Lorde is a strong, independent young woman... A role model

Unlike the others, she doesn't use autotune, she writes her own songs, and she DOESN'T have all those rabid fans! Seriously, I don't see how people like Justin Bieber can get so famous. He DOES use autotune, he DOESN'T write his own songs, and, obviously, his fans are so rabid they'd stalk him, running across streets, blocking traffic, just to SEE him! That happened in Oslo, and they'd also get hit by a car and take a selfie with Bieber in it. Just no.

Lorde is so inspirational and only 17! Royals and Team are both amazing songs, and I also personally love In A World Alone. This girl has a bright future and is gonna be one of the most famous faces in 5 years, just you see. Her songs are honest and make you want to get up and dance with all the other outcasts in the world, because you know you're not alone.

What the heck? How is Lorde below Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Demi Lovato, and Ariana Grande? Unlike those terrible artists, Lorde actually knows how to sing, and she is a lot better of a person than those people. Justin Bieber just got arrested, Taylor Swift is extremely narcissistic, and Grande/Lovato are only famous for their roles on television. SMH.

3 Shawn Mendes Shawn Peter Raul Mendes is a Canadian singer-songwriter and model. He attracted a following in 2013, when he began posting song covers on the popular video sharing application Vine.

Is he a good country singer!? At sixteen he took on country music. Never be Alone, Aftertaste, Crazy, Air, and Strings are examples of his songs that follow the genre of country music. He increases the use or guitar in his songs, giving them some country music flair. And finally he is inspired by Taylor Alison Swift for his music; she is also his idol. Even Air is to the tune of Taylor Swift's debut single Tim McGraw.

He is amazing! His voice brings joy to many and the fact that he plays the guitar during his concerts is amazing as it is rare nowadays! Another fantastic thing about him is that he writes his own music! He does all this and he's just 17! He even started at an extremely young age and is now winning many awards...he deserves them! He is definitely the best teenage singer!

Shawn is my second favorite singer! (Taylor Swift is first) He's so cute, talented and nice, I can't even go four hours without hearing his voice! I would listen to his songs for HOURS! I also love the fact that when he sings live, he sounds like he does in the songs, I'm not even sure if he uses auto tune. (I can make an exception for Taylor since she sounds better without auto tune)

Love his voice it's so amazing and when I told all of my fellow classmates about him they listened to a few of his songs an where like wow he has an amazing voice and he's so talented. Shawn Mendes is the best and thanks to him and a few other singers I started writing my own songs and singing them.

4 Jessica Sanchez

It's just crazy she's not higher in this list when clearly she's the best singer of the bunch and also one of the best singers I've heard in a while. Her voice is so different, I've never heard something like that in my life from such a young person. She can sing big, classic songs and also put her own twist.

She's amazing! Her voice is unusual, Jessica should win American Idol. She's better than Phillip.

This girl is one of the best. She's the new generation's diva or should I say Queen. She will be BIG someday

5 Austin Mahone Austin Carter Mahone is an American singer and songwriter. He is currently signed to Young Money Entertainment, Cash Money Records and Republic Records.

I like his personality, he is quiet and he has a great sense of humor, but to be honest, I don't like him as a singer. He certainly has some sort of talent but his songs are trashy pop songs with no meaning, like Justin Bieber or One Direction songs. I think that he should do something he really wants and loves because we don't need the "new Justin Bieber", we need original artists.

Austin is the best he should at the top. Austin is a finominal person and he had an amazing personality. His voice is like an angel singing. Austin has the most awesome clothes!. He has influenced millions of thousandd of people children-teenagers-adults. Be sure to buy his album it's the best ever. Oh and not to forfet he is the hottest teenage boy and will stay there for a while. Austin is super cute, really funny, a great basketball player, and he should win all awards. Austins voice is powerful, strong, flowing and overall the best in the whole wide world," he is showing people if you put hard work and into something you love you will reach your goal in no time. Never give up on yourself. Ever." love you austin your thr best in the world can't waite for your next song xxx

Best singer as a teen! He's got a bunch of tunes from Mmm Yeah to All I ever need He's just fantastic. You should listen to his songs like 1) Mmm Yeah 2) Next to you 3) say something 4) say your just a friend 5)11:11 6) places 7) can't fight this love & many more

Austin Mahone is PERFECT! He is so talented, sweet, hilarious, quirky and I just love everything about him!
He has the softest and most beautiful voice.

6 Ronan Parke

Ronan Parke is great, powerful, lively. I like him so much.

He has so much potential

He is also too adorable

He is the best for ever...

7 Cody Simpson Cody Robert Simpson is an Australian singer, songwriter, musician, dancer and actor from Gold Coast, Queensland, who was previously signed to US record label Atlantic Records.

I have had the biggest crush on him since I was little. As I have gotten older I have appreciated so much more about him. He has an amazing voice and the work he puts into the music he creates is something I am so appreciative of him.

He's amazing! He's such a good singer, a GREAT dancer and the most important he has his own style. Three words for Cody Simpson = Simple, kind and gentleman. He definitely works hard to make a good job, I wish he was more famous than he is right now, he deserves it! So young and already so talented, great job Cody, we your angels love you

He is one of the greatest male singers who is able to sound just as great at life concerts. He's not out of tune and his voice is perfect.

Cody has such an amazing voice that can't be described with words. He has an Amazon style and his voice is very mature for his age which is Only 16

8 Greyson Chance Greyson Michael Chance is an American singer, songwriter, and pianist. His April 2010 performance of Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" at a sixth-grade music festival went viral on YouTube, gaining widespread attention and over 59 million views as of May 2017, as well as an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show ...read more.

He should be the #1 singer of all time. People keep comparing him to Justin Beiber and that is just crazy. Greyson is 100% better than Justin, and actually has TALENT. Greyson writes song about taking chances and succeeding in life, not sleeping with girls and getting drunk like Justin does. Justin has this really annoying high-pitched voice, Greyson actually sounds like a boy and puts soul into his music. This Greyson/Bieber crap has to stop.

Greyson is the best I've ever heard. I mean, who doesn't love him? His voice just gives me the shivers every time I hear him sing. He is not like most of the singers you hear today, with the rapping and the "Baby you belong with me." His songs are very inspirational and make you feel like you belong in this world. I think he is very underrated, more people need to know who Greyson Chance is. More people need to see REAL talent.

Greyson Chance is seriously the best singer out there. He would be more famous in the U. S if his agency could get it together and sell out Truth Be Told already and make him have more concerts around. Greyson is the sweetest, funniest and most talented singer who doesn't write all this junk music like Justin Bieber. He writes songs that teenagers can relate to in every single word. I'm an Enchancer for life.

Kay. Why are people always (in this particular commentary) comparing people to Justin Bieber? It's like leave the guy alone. Jesus, if u don't like him or can't stand him or so you say then simply don't comment shoot (like that) about him! Also Justin is a great and amazing singer, and obviously any singer would use auto tune once or twice so just buzz off with that bull crap and stop using he's Justin Bieber card so he's done something bad or its suddenly bad because it's a JB song or whatever.

9 Ross Lynch Ross Shor Lynch is an American singer, songwriter, actor, and musician. He is one of the founding members of the pop rock band R5. As an actor, he is known for his debut role as Austin Moon on the Disney Channel original series Austin & Ally, and for his role as Brady in Disney Channel's Teen Beach ...read more.

He is amazing, he is even in a band! R5! They're touring and they are amazing! Austin & Ally is a terrible show but just the fact that Ross is on it makes me smile, especially when he sings. It's like ice cream and row boats are a spring morning with cats.

He is great! He has an amazing voice! most people know him off of 'Austin and Ally', but not me...I've known him before!

Ross is just awesome I particularly like his dance moves. Good luck Ross!

He have a voice very pretty and I think he is the best!

She stars as the young version of Chloe Goodwin in The Goodwin Games and as Maya Hart in the Disney Channel series Girl Meets World.

15 Connie Talbot Connie Talbot (born November 20th, 2000) is an English child singer who rose to fame as a finalist on the first season of Britain's Got Talent. She is currently active as an independent music artist on YouTube.

Connie Talbot has the most incredible depth and richness, PLUS insane control, range, and perfect pitch. My money's on her for the future.
If she ever got backed by money versus just recording at home... of course it might ruin her seemingly joyful nature.

Check YouTube: "Connie Talbot vs. Adele high note". You'll see.
She does mainly cover songs is probs why she's not so noticed.
If you really want to trip, search for her around 5-7 years old singing Adele songs. Jaw-dropping.

I have been fascinated by her voice and beauty for a long time.

Sophisticated, authentic and classy. Truly exceptional.

Go connie! Conniefriends lets vote connie for her angelic voice!

Dove portrays Mal perfectly in Descendants and I love her song 'If Only' in that movie because it is such a sweet song and Dove's voice just made it even better. My absolute favourite song that she has done is her song 'What A Girl Is' which she performed with Baby Kaely (Man, that kid can rap) and Christina Grimmie (R.I.P Christina.
