Best Bands You've Never Heard Of....
Honey Honey. Indie rock band that was featured on the Joe Rogan podcast.
Arcade Fire...
This band isn't quite mainstream yet, but their surprising Grammy win garnered some well-deserved attention...
An excellent live band that features several different instruments (not your typical vocalist, guitarist, drummer, bassist), creating a rich and orchestral sound.
The Black Keys.
Another band that is slowly garnering more attention, but has not yet reached the level of success they truly deserve
One the only remaining soulful, blues-y rock band with some killer vocals and great live performances.
