  • 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. 
    love this band a lot.

    What thread did you create? - never mind, found it... To be fair, the lack of responses could just be about people not loving the music. :lol:;) I'm listening to it now though. First song is pretty good... it reminds me of someone though. Some other artist or band... Can't quite put my finger on it.... Oh, I know! They sound kind of like Coldplay.

    The Struts are a great new-ish band....they will release their 2nd album later in the year.  They have been opening for the Foo Fighters this year.

    black pistol fire...amazing live two-man band
    Second this! Great stuff. 

    Here are a few other bands I've been into lately:

    Wolf Alice - British alt rock band. Cannot recommend enough! I'm sure I am not the first to mention them here... 
    Shame - British Post-Punk. Great first album released this year.
    Kevin Morby - Maybe the best songwriter we have right now. Also a very talented guitarist with a great backing band. 
    Lord Huron - Atmospheric rock with some solid alternative songs. Good listening if you like being outdoors.
    First Aid Kit - Swedish folk duo. They are getting exponentially better by touring constantly. And they rock out live. 
    Chicano Batman - These guys spread a few genres, definitely a departure from my usual listening. World/soul/psychadelic/???
    Post Animal - Psychadelic. Described to me once as a mix of tame impala and black sabbath.

    Thats an interesting comparison. I guess I can hear it on some songs. Good, bad or otherwise I figured more people might give them a shot and say what they thought

    I've just discovered Moses Sumney, who is a pretty new artist - some really good modern soul/R&B.

    I agree!  Always loved their version of Van Morrison’s - Into the Mystic.

    SWMRS. Not new, been around for awhile, but I never heard of them. They opened up for Muse last night. Pretty decent. Lead singer reminded me of Mick Jagger or the Howlin' Pelle from The Hives. Also their drummer is Billie Joe Armstrong's kid.
