Weave Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 so i just learned of a youtube channel called postmodernjukebox. lots of former american idol contestants have done vocals for them. only listened to a handful so far but kinda interesting. I think I've posted Post Modern Jukebox vids in this thread a half dozen times. Haley Reinhart is dreamy. :wub: :wub: :wub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor of Philhousley Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Anyone like country ? Check out Sarah Shook and the Disarmers. More homegrown country as opposed to the new country.I'm not a country fan but I dig her style. Yup! I will add Lydia Loveless to the list.

That Aud Smell Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Speaking of proper country, and yeah it's fairly "roots" as well, this gal has made her way onto my radar in a big way: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Cornell may have no peers as a rock vocalist. The clips in this where they isolate on his voice give me chills. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5q41M2LOwso Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Aud Smell Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 ^ As the video suggests, Robert Plant is a Cornell predecessor. And while different, we can always put Mercury in the same rarified air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsb Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 To quote dark, it's all garbage. Yet so many people I know eat this ###### up. I honestly feel bad for them. They are being spoon fed crap and are ingesting it by the heap full. I'm a little late on this and I'm far from a country music person but Chris Stapleton, Zac Brown are pretty good and an album that's been out for awhile with Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris is worth a listen. Also Joe Ely was a good listen too a while back especially his live albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Joe Ely was a good listen too a while back especially his live albums. The Knopfler/ Harris CD is "All the Roadrunning." They also put out a live version "Real Live Roadrunning." Haven't listened to either in a very long time, but as I recall, they're pretty good. Might have to give them a re-listen. :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BagBoy Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 Jason Molina's band Magnolia Electric Co. If you like Neil Young there's a decent chance you will like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a rare and remarkable talent. RIP. I have found that I must visit his music with care and caution. Its power is astonishing, and it can lead the listener to some dark and lonely places. When I’m in the right mood, though — Jesus. Listening to him is like being in a “thin place,” as the Irish say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunomatic Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 (edited) Back to country. The Dead South. These cats are not pop formula country. A cello, a bango and two singers. Check em out. Upon further review they do play more instruments. Edited May 26, 2018 by bunomatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a big kick out of their video "In Hell I'll Be In Good Company" having so much of it filmed in Toronto! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a good laugh look up the Dead South- Hillary, Mr Bean and Forrest Gump. Its ' In hell I'll be in good company ' but with a comedic video.

dudacek Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 Spinal Tap was an amalgam of many bands. I love Priest to death, but they were clearly one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been listening to the Dead South a lot since you mentioned them. They are really good, and definitely have a ton of bluegrass in their DNA. They are from Regina, and while that may not exactly be a bluegrass hot spot, who cares? They are very good at it, however they got there. Here's another unique bluegrass band that I love called the Earl Brothers, from San Francisco (mostly anyways)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 If you like non pop country/bluegrass, check out nickel creek.... They are really cool and vary their style in all the songs/albums, I don't know how to post YouTube videos :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Crotch Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Down here in the Big Easy we metal harder than elsewhere... not for the faint of heart... crazy heavy (i.e., most will hate this)... listen at your cost of your eardrums...

darksabre Posted June 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Arctic Monkeys just released a new album and it's basically just a Bowie homage. I'm not complaining. It's good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're one of the headliners for the Voodoo Fest (music + arts experience) down here in New Orleans October 26th - 28th. Come on down. https://www.voodoofestival.com/lineup/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
