Music group/artist you stumbled onto and now really dig

Traci Chapman. Yeah, I had heard Fast Car when it was on radio rotation, but when I heard Give Me One Reason, I started deep diving her music. Primo.
 
I can settle the argument right now. The best band in the late 80’s/early 90’s was New Grass Revival when they had Sam Bush and Bela Fleck. It’s not particularly close either. So y’all can just hush about sissy ass grunge
 
Edie Brickell & New Bohemians played down in Deep Ellum and i caught a few shows. Hard to "get into" them as they came and went but saw them before a somewhat rise.

That led me down a Tiny Desk rabbit hole and I was pleasantly surprised by this one.



Again, if you don't like it, please find someone that gives a fuck to tell.

I remember some years ago when a NE Ohio Jewboy turned me on to this stuff.



Then he got old and grumpy.

Nah.

It predated grunge. And was the best thing Georgia has given us since Ty Cobb.

Not sure where this puts me, i have never heard of any of those groups. Wouldn't even know the genre other than some kind of rock.

But I Spotify artists in my liked songs and do like groups. So newer shit aint on my radar. I do have some stuff that is outta my norms that I have downloaded. I don't really play that Playlist anymore since I pay Spotify and really use it for talk and not music. I listen to it almost exclusively when I am alone except when in car when it is a 50/50 mix.

What about Gay Witch Abortion? Heard of them? :laugh: Prolly none of those will be on Spotify. Kinda "underground" bands.

Cherubs - Noise rock
Helious Creed - been around since the 80's, influence to the Butthole Surfers
King Buffalo - Newer-ish band. If Black Sabbath and Pink Floyd had a baby
Swans - Godfathers of Industrial rock. Influence Nine Inch Nails and Ministry, etc.
Pelican - Stoner rock, mostly instrumental
The Sword - Stoner/doom metal
TV on the Radio - Eclectic rock

Phish covers their tune Golden Age.

I love the lines:

Like I said "Love's Light is Laughter"
Like the sun spittin' happiness into the hereafter

Talented band for sure

Phish?

For sure. I totally understand that they're not everybody's thing, but they're crazy talented. I am a big fan.

They did a 13-night run at MSG that they named The Baker's Dozen and they didn't repeat a single song.

I would prolly recommend starting with Orion. Much like Floyd, I think you hafta listen to the entire album, in order. Definitely psychedelic rock, but with some attitude.

They are an excellent live band. Their bass player is smooth af.

I kinda stopped listening around Dear Science, for whatever reason? I'll get around to their newer stuff eventually.

Young Liars EP is my fave, and then prolly Dear Science.

I kinda like these in order. Liars is only 4 songs(EP), but I dig it.
