Duffy - worth �6m. Despite the utter disaster of her second album, profits from Duffy's debut 'Rockferry' keep the Welsh singer ticking over nicely.
Natasha Bedingfield - worth �6m. Success in the US and concentrating her career on large overseas market has stood Daniel's sister in good stead. Plans to release a new album worldwide later in 2012.
Lily Allen - worth �6m. Recent rumours suggest 'Lily Rose Cooper' is set to add to her substantial fortune with a return to pop in the not-too-distant future.
Florence Welch - worth �7m. Sadly one of the few artists on this list who are currently recording music, Florence and The Machine release their MTV Unplugged album this week. A few more pennies in the pot from that no doubt.
Paolo Nutini - �8m. Soft rocker Nutini hasn't released a new album since 2009, but the succes of his two records keep the singer headlining festivals such as Latitude.
Craig David - worth �8m. Twelve years after his debut on the UK urban scene, the singer is still 'all over your *boink*' and raking in the cash - despite a series of underwhelming recent album releases.
Charlotte Church - worth �8m. The transition from opera star to pop star didn't quite go as planned (Church was last seen flogging her second album on home shopping channels), but cash from her angelic classical albums have set Charlotte up for life.
Joss Stone - worth �10m. Spent 2011 hanging out with Mick Jagger and avoiding sword-wielding kidnappers rather than setting the charts alight with her music, but sales of her early work keeps the Westcountry singer in floaty dresses and beaded bracelets.
Katie Melua - worth �12m. Never underestimate the power of Radio 2. The singer's success may have dwindled since her 2003 debut 'Call Off The Search', but Melua remains a dinner-party favourite with the middle classes.
Leona Lewis - worth �12m. Slightly dull and struggling slightly after her failed 2011 reinvention into a dance diva, Leona Lewis remain the most successful X Factor winner of all time.
Cheryl Cole - worth �12m. Hardly the nation's greatest musical talent, Cheryl has boosted her music earnings promoting hair products and fake eyelashes - oh, and her role as an X Factor judge wouldn't have paid too terribly either.
Adele - worth �20m. After single-handedly reviving the flagging fortunes of the UK music industry with her '21' album, Adele quite rightly tops the list as the richest young musician in the UK. The album remains in the UK Top Five more than a year after it's release. The 'Someone Like You' singer is planning on a long break before her next record - probably spending much of her time off spending all her hard-earned cash.
