Don't know if somebody already posted this, but Polyphia impresses me every day anew - progressive rock, novel, virtuosic, talented:

 

[Juhazi]

Ellen Petersen Haygood (again) singing Patsy different style from Allison

A streamer had this song going in the background, and I had to find out what it was.

 

[Juhazi]

Rhiannon Giddens is multitalented

Rhiannon Giddens is multitalented

Giddens is amazing, agreed.

Just bumped into Hooverphonic. Wow, love their style. This track smells vaguely 'James Bond-ish'. I've plunged ahead and bought several albums on bandcamp. Just love it.

 

[001]

Forgot to say, Hooverphonic are Belgian outfit, so then I looked for more 'Belgian' singers and then I found 'Selah Sue'. Where have I been all these years! She's so cool. It's 'the end of the world' mood here but so well done. Enjoy.

then to this

So good.

And now for something completely different. Aldous Harding, New Zealand, I confess to being taken in by the video; my eyes couldn't believe my brain. what.was.she.doing.with.that.hat. Monty Python anyone? But then I just listened to her and she's got me twice now. Enjoy. Sorry about the vid

 

[001]

Hhhmm, I've obviously been living under a musical rock. I've started falling running down rabbit holes on the intertube and found Dave Grusin 'punta del soul'. I've got a *lot* of listen-catchup to do.

 

[001]

Matt Corby. Unique voice. Utterly soulful singer. Tugs on my musical soul strings.

 

[posvibes]

There are a few artists I have discovered over the last couple/few years, some of whom I was vaguely aware of and others that came out of the blue. Some of them listed below I have investigated quite deeply and have just been amazed at their catalogue, their musical breadth and depth.

Daniel Melingo
Christina Pluhar
Jordi Savall
Prokofiev
Anat Fort
Hadouk Trio
Percy Grainger
Ravel

It wins no awards for recording quality (Im guessing Zambia in the 70's wasnt at the cutting edge of recording tech) but damn this has a groove.
