Jack Garratt is the winner of this year's BBC Sound of 2016 list

Jack Garratt has won this year's BBC Sound of 2016 list.

The musician beat off competition from the likes of Alessia Cara and NAO to win the title.

The poll was voted on by industry tastemakers as they predicted this year's emerging star.

Garratt commented: "Winning the BBC Music Sound of 2016 poll has left me feeling pretty stunned at the end of one of the most emotionally and physically intense years of my life.

"I cannot thank the BBC enough for their continued support, and everyone who voted for me.

"Every other name on the list is unbelievably talented, and I hope this year will be a great one for all of us."

Garratt also recently bagged the 2016 Brits Critics' Choice Award.

He will release his debut album 'Phase' in February.
