3 Male Rockers from the 2010s Whose Solo Music Will Last Forever

While we have a little bit of distance from the prior decade, the 2010s have provided some popular musical acts that many have enjoyed. But there are precious few from the era that we are sure made music that will stand the test of time.

Tame Impala

With a voice like John Lennon and production like J Dilla, Tame Impala (born Kevin Parker on January 20, 1986, in Sydney), makes music that sinks into your soul and sears it from the inside at the same time. As Tame Impala, the beat maker, songwriter, and performer released three albums in the 2010s: Innerspeaker in 2010, Lonerism in 2012 and Currents in 2015. He also released The Slow Rush in 2020. And all are excellent. He is a beacon when it comes to what songwriting can be in modern times—lush, expressive, and versatile.

Jack White

Born on July 9, 1975, in Detroit, many know the blues-rocker Jack White from his band The White Stripes, which garnered much attention and popularity in the 2000s. White has released six more albums, both as a solo artist and with side projects like The Dead Weather and The Raconteurs in the 2010s. Perhaps the best known of those is the 2012 LP Blunderbuss. Using his lightning-like expressive voice and his penchant for thoughtful lyrics, White has carried on his career past the dissolution of The White Strips and he continues to impress into the 2020s and beyond.

Alex Turner

The frontman for the British-born band the Arctic Monkeys, Alex Turner was born January 6, 1986, in Sheffield, England. And while his rollicking, roaring, buzzing band is one of the biggest names in music, it’s his 2011 solo LP Submarine that we want to highlight here. It’s intricate and insightful. It’s different from his amplifier-busting Arctic Monkeys. It’s acoustic and piano-driven, but still showcases his glorious, crush-worthy singing voice. It’s a model in musical juxtaposition.
