This list is a bunch of random artists that I listen to on the regular on Spotify. ENJOY!
Check out the playlist I made with all of the artists on it!
A- The Avett Brothers
The Avett Brothers are my absolute favorite band. They are a folk/bluegrass band from North Carolina.
B- Baio
Chris Baio who is a member of Vampire Weekend has some solo material that is really good! Very fun to dance to.
C- Cardi B
I know pretty much everyone knows who Cardi B is. She is blowing up on the music scene right now. Her voice is so powerful. I love it!!!
D- Dawes
Dawes is an alt rock band. They have been on my radar for a while, but I have been recently listening to “A Little Bit of Everything.” So good!
E- Eric Clapton
Eric Clapton is a classic. “Wonderful Tonight” is one of my favorite songs. Future wedding song? Possibly!!!
F- Father John Misty
Father John Misty is one of the cleverest lyricists. His lyrics paired with his smooth voice=DREAMY/HILARIOUS.
G- Gorillaz
Gorillaz have been around for a while, but their song “Latin Simone (Que Pasa Contigo)” is a lot of fun to sing along to.
H- HAIM
The beautiful group of sisters a.k.a. HAIM has such a unique sound. They are really fun to sit down chill out to.
I- Iron & Wine
Iron & Wine is a slower pace than a lot of music. Extremely relaxing to listen to. Iron & Wine is super underrated.
J- Janis Joplin
Janis Joplin, another classic, is one of my favorite artists. Her voice is amazing. Her lyrics are relatable. You CANNOT go wrong with a little Janis Joplin.
K- Kendrick Lamar
Kendrick is blowing up right now. I.M.O. Kendrick is one of the best rappers of our time. His music is fire. I saw him live for the first time at the Okeechobee Music Festival. It was life changing.
L- Led Zepplin
Led Zepplin is another timeless band. “Babe I’m Gonna Leave You” is one of my favorite songs. So much feels.
M- MGMT
MGMT has a really different sound. Their music really surprises me because I didn’t think their sound was that versatile, but I have been liking all their music so far.
N- Neutral Milk Hotel
I am still in the middle of exploring Neutral Milk Hotel’s music, but “In the Aeroplane Over the Sea” is a fun song.
O- Old Crow Medicine Show
Old Crow is one of the most fun artists I’ve seen live. Their music is fast-paced and fun to dance to. Also jus to clear things up, Old Crow sings the original “Wagon Wheel” song. Darrius Rucker’s version got nothin’ on Old Crow’s version.
P- Patsy Cline
Patsy Cline’s music dates back to the 50s. I don’t know what is was, but I just love her voice and her songs are very relatable.
Q- Queen
An obvious classic, Queen fills me with happiness whenever I listen to their music. It will never get old to me.
R- Roy Orbison
My love for Roy Orbison started last summer. His voice is so smooth and unique. His music is beautiful. What more could you ask for?!
S- Sharon Van Etten
I only recently started to listen to Sharon Van Etten, but her voice is angelic. Although it’s a cover, “The End of the World” is such a beautiful and sad song.
T- Thunderbitch
Thunderbitch is headed by none other than Brittany Howard from Alabama Shakes. Anything with Brittany is amazing, and Thunderbitch is one of those things.
U- UB40
To be honest, I had no artist that started with a U. So, I just picked one I knew. UB40 has been around for a while, but “Red, Red Wine” will always be a classic.
V- Vampire Weekend
Vampire Weekend is another one of my favorite artists. The lyrics and Ezra Koenig’s voice is a perfect mix of classy and fun.
W- Waylon Jennings
Super random artist, I know, but I have been listening to the song “I Can Get Off On You”, which is quite the interesting song.
X- The xx
Also wasn’t currently listening to anyone that started with an X. So, I chose The xx. Their sound is different and need some getting used to, but they have some good tune-age.
Y- Young the Giant
I have been listening to Young the Giant since their early days. I actually prefer their older stuff better. They are also really fun to see live.
Z- The Zombies
As you can tell, I listen to a lot of classic rock. “Time of the Season” is such a sexy song. A great song to belt out in the car (which I do a lot).
