    Greensky Bluegrass 

    The dudes are all I listen to as of late. Great vibe to them. I know they've been around for 15+ years or so, but these dudes are just so fucking amazing.

    Fangclub.
    A new grunge influenced band from Ireland that released their debut record last year. Check it out if you're in the mood for something that sounds more like Nirvana. They've only been around for a few years, maybe since 2014. I saw them open for the Pixies last year, was very impressed.

    I saw another Irish band, the Coronas (more pop than grunge for sure) and their manager told me about Fangclub.  Happy to see them mentioned here, reminds me to look their music up.

    I just discovered I Am the Mountain. They're a fairly new Canadian band, based out of Calgary, with 2 EPs so far. I'm really loving them! They describe their music as "campfire soul music". There are also clear jazz influences. Here is their Spotify page: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3vWSTTTiw2Y8UrcAnJhlb4?si=yGqESGAUQWqZfNzywIkGlQ

    Not necessarily a "new" band but no mention of them on this thread. Plus my cousin plays with  them....

    I'll shamelessly plug Chris Whitley. He died way too soon of lung cancer back in 2005. He opened for Tom Petty in 1991 and played on David Letterman twice. He's a mix of Delta Blues/Grunge/Electronic. CW blends those influences in a natural and amazing way. Please check him out!

    I just discovered Beth Rowley. She's quite amazing IMHO, which is really nice, because I have to admit my personal music catalogue seriously lacks female artists; it almost makes me feel like some kind of music sexist, lol. I feel pretty stoked when I find one that really piques my interest.

    She's just released this super good album called Gota Fria:

    I’ve just got into The Sidekicks the last few months. Reminds me of early 90’s “light” alternative. This is their new album

    Not sure if by "new" you meant a recent band (2016-2018?), or that you meant a band that's "new to your ears" (unheard or undiscovered until now). There are many I can suggest in the latter category:

    Courtney Barnett - "Avant Gardener"

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcnIhzaDTd0

    Jim O'Rourke - "All Downhill From Here"

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahWetlj4F7g


    Radio Moscow - "Rancho Tehama Airport"

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8dzqafApaE

    Sweet Apple - "Do You Remember"

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMLAQMpzf8Y&list=RDAMLAQMpzf8Y&start_radio=1

    I Blame Coco - "Self Machine"

    I don't think the OP has ever answered the question about whether or not we should be posting actual new bands or just bands that are new to us and will likely be new to others. But I'll just assume it's the latter.

    I just discovered the album Cyborgs Revisited by Simply Saucer, a Canadian punk band from the 70s. It's an awesome album - apparently renowned. The album was actually compiled in '89, but the music itself was made in the 70s.
