Don't know your taste, but I'll take this opportunity to splurge about my own!
Janelle Monae- a soulful voice with an eclectic style. Her latest album goes from symphony orchestra, to RnB to rock to pop to operatic! I love the variety of one album! Made me buy both her official albums. Now I've got to look for underground stuff.
St. Vincent - she's airy and artistic. Her lyrics paint vague images that allow your mind to come up with its own theme of the song. Her voice is very beautiful.
Gotye - All I heard was "Somebody I Used To Know" and it was enough for me to buy the album, Making Mirrors. I certainly don't regret it. I'd say he's an alternative style. All three of these are, really.
Freezepop - Have you heard of them? They're a techno-rocky pop band. Pretty different. My favorites are "Less Talk More Rokk" and "Brainpower"
Jamiroquai - a funky guy. His music is like revamped disco! lol I love it. He did "Canned Heat" used in Napolean Dynamite and Center Stage.
Hiromi Euhara - for those of you who enjoy piano jazz. :3
