5 'New' Musicians that I can tolerate.


I usually don't like new music (I'm a stickler for classics with interests such as Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Pink Floyd, The Doors, etc.), but I am happy to have come across some tunes that strike my fancy! And yes, I am VERY picky...

Jack Johnson
Jack Johnson is pretty much the best thing ever.
I love his music because it is simple, politcal, solid & calm. It is certainly a step up from the sappy and meaningless songs that are constantly played on today's pop radio stations.
4.3/5

Michael Franti
Micahel Franti has always been a favourite of mine. However.. with his latest album, "All Rebel Rockers" I have to say I was a little disappointed. I would expect more, since he impressed me so much with, "Everyone Deserves Music" .
4.5/5

Across the Universe Soundtrack
I don't know if this qualifies because it is all old songs, but, I will say that I was happy with the way that they were re-recorded!
4.4/5

Lenka
Lenka is simple & sweet. Fluffy but fun. It may not be that deep- but it is certainly enjoyable in my opinion!
4/5

Andrew Bird
Andrew Bird is Amazing! He is great because he is so different.. and.. original. I like it.
4.4/5

More to come as I try to discover more up to snuff artists of today!
