I quite like these guys - they're called One Night Only:

I see you're in the US - if you want a change of pace, try streaming some UK radio. They still play a lot of US radio staples, but there's quite a bit of variation from US top 40:

Alright here goes..

 

One of my favourite artists of all time is Chris Chameleon.

He has the same vocal range as Mika and does even crazier things with his voice.

 

Some bands that are just good:

Sonic Youth

Idlewild

Fiction Plane (Sounds like a rockier version of The Police but that was to be expected since the singer is Sting's son).

Noir Désir

 

And if you like electro you should check out some of this stuff:

Le Tigre

Blaqk Audio

Vive la Fête

Chicks on Speed

Miss Kittin

 

Ok that's enough for now. :naughty:

Very good advice :thumb_yello: Can I also add http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2 though. Also some times of day are better than others, so maybe rather than streaming when it is likely to be the middle of the night here, try listening again to certain shows... On Radio 2 my faves are Chris Evans, Ken Bruce, Steve Wright and at weekends Johnathon Ross ;)

this is what i listen to;

 

Ok Go; they're video clips are really fun to watch, and their music is catchy and cool, you may have seen their video clip for 'Here it goes again', it is on treadmills lol.

 

The Fratellis; I havn't really seen any of their video clips, but I like the song

it puts me in a good mood.

 

The Beatles; Pretty much anything of theirs, I like 'Across the Universe' and 'Here Comes the Sun'. I got some sheet music in .pdf format from ebay, i am in Beatles heaven at the moment, lol.

 

Lilly Allen; like Mika said in the DVD, she is an escape from main stream cr@p

 

The Kooks; see Lilly Allen, I love

 

Regina Spektor; Her music is a bit unusual, but '

is pretty easy to listen to.

 

The View; They have some cool songs, 'Wasted Little DJ'S' or something like that, 'You've Got the Face for a Radio',

 

Kate Miller Heidke; She is out of the ordinary, I reccomend 'Words' and 'Make it Last'

 

Muse; They really do some awesome stuff with music, anything from the album 'Absolution' I like the song 'Sing for Absolution'

 

Eskimo Joe; I am a tad over them, but other people might like them.

 

Holst's 'The Planets' suite; It is really good, and powerful.

 

Bach; Prelude from the suite for unnacompanied cello BWV 1007; It is REALLY relaxing

 

Bob Sinclair; makes me want to get up and dance. 'Sound of Freedom'

 

Supertramp; 'Dreamer' is cool. I don't know much about them, but i think they are from the 70's, and I'm not sure if 'Dreamer' is original or not :blink:

30 Seconds to Mars; I like the track '

' it is in 3/4 so you can waltz (very fast!) to it hehe.

 

Kaiser Chiefs; they are cool, but the same as Eskimo Joe, I have sorta gone off of them

Here are some current bands and singers that I listen to:

 

 

The Knife -

Marble House

 

Emilie Autumn - Opheliac

The Art of Suicide

Liar

 

Shiina Ringo - Shuukyou

Yami ni Furu Ame

Koko de Kisu Shi.te

 

Frank Klepacki -

Act On Instinct

Full Stop

 

Yelle - Je veux te voir

A cause des garçons

 

Antony and the Johnsons - Hope There's Someone

 

Lacrimosa -

Halt mich

Malina

 

 

Also, while he's not a current artist, I'm currently slightly obsessed with Jobriath's music. :biggrin2: He released two albums back in the early 70's, which have only just been re-issued on CD in Japan (before that, you could only get a compilation CD, 'Lonely Planet Boy'), and they've got a spacey glam rock sound with a dash of musical theatre - fabulous stuff! Unfortunately, he's hardly known at all, so there's practically nothing of his on YouTube, but there's a very short documentary-type-video which plays two of his tracks, 'I'maman' and 'Inside' from his first album, if you're interested -

I'm a big fan of Kasabian and a lot of bands in the indie rock genre like: Kaiser Chiefs, Arctic Monkeys, Maximo Park, Franz Ferdinand etc.

 

Also suggest to listen to some 70's music like Pink Floyd, The who, T. rex and so on.

I have a few:

David Jordan, check out his myspace page http://www.myspace.com/davidjordan

He has Prince and Lennie Kravitz as influences and his new song Sun Goes Down is amazing, the video is brilliant too.

Duffy, Mika is a fan too, she has a fantastic voice, very routed in the 60s but so fresh.

One Night Only, a new group from York, their debut single You and Me is SO infectious.

And finally The Wombats they too do really infectious indie type music, whch is brilliant.

I figured you already know about Palladium from here, hence not mentioning them, but if you haven't listened to them yet, I strongly urge you to.
