In my honest opinion a singer who influenced the UK immensely was the late great Cyril Tawney. He wrote many wonderful songs, which are sung probably all over the world today.
2nd place Roger Whittaker
Australia and the UK would be Martyn Whyndham-Read

America Peter Paul and Mary
Canada The McGarrigles Family
Scotland
The Fisher Family
2nd Jimmy Shand
Wales
Shirley Bassey & Tom Jones
Ireland
Dubliners
