New Music Recommendation threads - Post your fav new artists here

[LynneSin]

I'm digging Damian Rice's new (and first CD) "O". I discovered Damian Rice when I was at WXPN's Singer/Songwriter festival and fell in love with his music. He's from Ireland and he has a very soulful musical style.

11. North Mississippi All Stars.

I bought their new album, Polaris, this weekend. It is very good. These guys are a true rock n' roll band of the likes you rarely hear these days. Luther Dickinson plays a mean guitar.

13. John Mayer

I saw John Mayer in concert in Houston with Maroon 5 and The Counting Crows. John Mayer's new CD just came out and it is great. He has matured and it shows in the lyrics and music. He has brought new instruments in. Anyway, check it out. It's great.

I just heard about this band, but they've been around for a while. Very hard to put into words what they do.
