Not many people know about My Morning Jacket.

Finally, someone else who knows who are they are, who isn't the person who introduced me to them.

Andy Clayburn:
Angel of the storm
Just hanging out
Sunshine Junky

Jive Aces:
Singin' in the rain
Bring me sunshine

Babybird - had one well known song in the 90s, and has continued to make good music, also made the song which was the theme tune to Gordon Ramsay's 'The F Word'

Peter Gabriel - Astounded that none of my friends have heard of him, beautiful lyrics and so good live. Cannot give him enough praise. He is known, but not known enough!

Mark Battles - New up and coming rapper, just been signed to Young Money, and is making a collab mixtape with wiz and mac miller, can tell he's gonna be so big in 2012.

Alex Clare - Not sure how many people know him, but I saw him live supporting Magnetic Man, and he was soooo good. It's dubstep/dance music made with real instruments. I much preferred him to MM, which was all done on macbooks

Scottish Rock band called Logan. They are simply amazing. They supported Alter Bridge a couple of years ago and were sensational.

I'm not trying to sound pretentious or overly individual and whatever, but there are some artists/bands out there that really deserve to have more publicity than the music from like Ke$ha and **** like that that in the charts, not saying the chart songs aren't good, but there are some hidden gems that need more attention!

Post your favourites/recommendations :smile:

Mine:

•

Ratatat (electro and techno-ey but deserve SO MUCH MORE)

The Mae Shi (alternative - this song is amazing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUKAcKKQns4 & as is this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZ4ge2kWC8Y)

Scroobius Pip (british rap/spoken work - the lyrics are amazing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GvR8t2HDys)

Wait What (hes not someone in the charts, but is a youtube artist, who mased up the XX & Notorious B.I.G; beauty insues http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFB4NMLSz9c)

I know thats only a couple, but I really should go back to revising for my mocks this week... :colondollar:

ratatat are pretty well known, and yes they are awesome. the mae shi on the other hand should really get more recognition, i saw them in canada 3 years ago and loved their live gig, so interactive
