Grizfolk (alternative rock):

The Gray Havens (Actually Great Christian Music):


Do y'all have any suggestions of good obscure bands?

EDIT: I removed the apparently non-obscure bands as they were derailing the thread. Grizfolk and The Gray Havens are awesome.

That really was "I love their stuff and I think the attention they get is disproportionate to the quality of their songs."

you must want them to be the only bands on the radio. both of those bands are played non-stop on mainstream radio and XM.

I guess that I just listen to the wrong stations. As I don't ever remember hearing the Strunbellas on air, and I've only heard stations play AWOLNATION's Sail, but they have played that song a lot.

One fine day, you will go to college and discover actual bands and musicians with talent. I admit, I listened to some crap pop music in high school myself.

These folks you listed are about as far from 'obscure' as it gets.

In the meantime, feel free to check out The Brian Jonestown Massacre's back catalog from the 90's and early aughts if you'd like to hear actual 'obscure' music.

There's A LOT of people who have never heard of him. Very few of all the people I know have any idea who he is. He goes out of his way to be obscure, anyways.

I'd say he's not obscure, but I live in Austin. I hear him all the time. I'd guess you get out of this area and he's fairly obscure.

I live in Austin as well, and I always meet people who have never heard of him. I'm shocked every time.

I also live in Austin. I recognize the name but I don't think that I've heard his work.

I was thinking Gray Havens before I opened this thread, but never expected it to appear here, especially not in the original post.
Good Call.

Kids These Days - Vic Mensa was the rapper in this band circa 2011-12 and Donnie Trumpet was on the trumpet who works with Chance the Rapper a lot and is a part of The Social Experiment. They were all in high school at the time.
