Exactly. This year alone I’ve discovered more great popular music than during any other previous time. All through the Internet, all relatively obscure artists of the Americana genre. Only one band of them is breaking through big. Others find their audiences in small clubs, at festivals, in local markets, and in Europe and Australia. In previous decades, one followed musical mediocrities only because his friends followed the same mediocrities. Is it still the same? I hope not.

If you’ve found some new artists you think are worth a listen feel free to drop a few in the thread. I’m always looking to add to my collection and like discovering new artists. I enjoy all genres except cRap and Metal. And can live without Opera.
