I encourage you to check out:
rewardmusic.com - this is a new platform co-launched by Dweezil Zappa (yes, Frank's son) that puts all the dollars and control into the musician's pocket and not into FB or some big tech reach-limiting algorithm. There is an Artist's page where you can find artists on this platform that you've likely never heard.
https://bandcamp.com - this site lets you sample and buy music from unsigned artists. You can search by genre and format.
http://www.unsignedbandweb.com - here is a plethora of free new music that doesn't always suck.
Also, if you have XM, stop listening to Classic Vinyl and Classic Rewind and listen to Underground Garage.
Don't be a Democrat and wait for the MSM to tell you what to like, simply surrender. Be a Deplorable and work for it.
Cool stuff. People who think nothing good is happening just aren’t looking. It’s like staying in your house and then bemoaning how you never find money on the sidewalk, you gotta get to the sidewalk to find money on it. To find good stuff you gotta listen to something other than the classic rock channels. Heck even the old “legacy” bands are doing great stuff, which you won’t find if you don’t look. Find a good podcast, youtube channel, learn to seed Spotify. Or read articles. I found a ton of great music from this article:
