They're not unpopular, but no-one my age has heard of them

That's a really good song! I love acoustic songs .

I do too! They're bringing out an album in about two weeks or so

if you're posting songs in this thread you might as well say "i am a hipster"

how so?

I posted a video because I wanted to share what I consider to be good music that isn't on the radio so most people might not have had chance to listen to it.

Music brings people together and is meant to be shared. When did it become a bad thing to share music with each other?

I love Maria Mena! Where is she from ? She kinda has an accent ?

Norway! I absolutely love her. All of her CD's are great. I think the last one is her best though

I completely agree, Thriving Ivory are so freaking good, yet hardly anyone has heard of them

I'm pretty sure you can hear some of the previews on iTunes atm I bought myself a bundle off of their website which had a load of signed stuff, the album and tickets to any of their gigs for only like £20 which wasn't bad

You do?? O.o wait, do you actually know her (like her other CD's and stuff) or you've heard about "A Thousand Miles" and that's about it?

Haha, well I have Be Not Nobody and Harmonium on my iPod... And I did download Heroes & Thieves but haven't got round to listening to it.

Is her newest album good? Haha, obviously you'd think so if you're a fan!

Also can I just add Regina Spektor...

Well, yes I love all of her CD's. I think that Heroes and Thieves is probably my favourite but her new album is really good. What I love about her is that she is so unique and 4 albums in, you can still see why you started listening to her. What a talent!

I think Silversun Pickups are the best rock band to come out in the past few years, but none of my friends who are into rock music are fans. Although in fairness a lot of my friends are ****ers.

Is naming bands from Sweden considered to be cheating? xD

Not if the band's name is Friska Viljor

And now for something a little different

[Palatial Veranda]

Pretty much everything I listen to I can guarantee I will not see on television/hear on the radio which is quite nice.

Tiago Benzinho hasn't managed to get his own Wikipedia stub yet . . .

Have a look at this tribute to the movie 'The Piano' and listen to the music accompanying it (Tiago Benzinho - New Zealand). Pretty beautiful combination.



You can listen to the whole album on his website:
