I recently discovered Helium Vola, they do not have hi-res music, but CD quality is good too.

EU next to warzone :.(
I already know them longer, but still I feel this is a good place to list them, as they are still quite unknown (when I look at YT view counters)..

Plastic Mermaids - Floating In A Vacuum

Plastic Mermaids - Painted Lady - LIVE from Ventnor

Very interesting. I actually prefer the second one. Always cool to see something different. Not sure I would buy it, but I will certainly listen to it again..

Just found this guy last weekend. I have been on a blues kick recently. I bought his new album, Mojo.

Also bought new albums from these bands recently. Not quite up to KingFish and Ash, but still, pretty good :)

so, I am scrolling through Netflix last night looking for something to watch. I usually don't watch animae, but this looks interesting. The whole show is only 40 minutes. It reminds me of the old classic movie Heavy Metal. And I am really digging the music. Turns out the guy is a country guy. This is NOT country. I bought the album tonight. Different is cool.:)

A band with nothing but a bass and drums would get old fast, right? Well, if you add saxophone you'd have Morphine... and I love them. But now I'm convinced that less can be more! Beehoover taught me that much today (although to be fair there is some guitar in this one):

Sarah Jarosz - American Folk/Country/Bluegrass with a little crossover probably trying to break out to a larger audience. Really like the tone of her voice and compositions. First heard her on Pandora and then picked up her album Undercurrents. Unfortunately I found the production was a bit on the loud side (ugh), the cd can become a bit fatigueing when played, a sure sign for me that they are producing her for the portable crowd.

I missed her performing here in town last year, would love to catch a show sometime in the future and would love her to lay down a proper produced album.

I discovered Carmen Gomes years ago. Available at soundliaison.com in high res download

It was just this year that Carmen Gomes releases a forth album with Soundliaison and it is unique in that it is a ONE MIC recording.

Exceptional HiFi resolution ! ! !View attachment 26545
I just bought the ''carmen-gomes-sings-the-blues" download which I discovered through the: Test your DAC! Free Format Comparison
Fabulous album!
This one mic recording will be next on my list. These recordings seem to have a rarely hear fidelity.

The Ever After, a band originally from New York, has just released a new EP "Eh Voilà!". Six songs, with, for the very first time, one in french. It is called "Tirage au Sort", and there is even a video for it.

Teddy Swims is a YouTube guy that I somehow ran across. Have become a real fan. He covers a quite diverse range - Billie Eilish, Shania Twain, Amy Winehouse, Khalid, Mario, Six60, Michael Jackson, Marvin Gay! Amazingly to me he stays true to the source material but puts his own soulful mark on them all. Do yourself a favor and give a listen.
