Meg Myers is amazing

 

I'd recommend Meg Myers if you haven't heard of her. Somewhat similar.

 

I haven't spent much time with her music. I'll give it another try though!

 

Annie Clark and Erykah Badu are the only things my city has but god they are such legends

 

Those are two top notch artists to be known for

 

Adelaide, Monster, Desire, Heart Heart Head, Feather, and Make A Shadow are a few of my favs.

 

Would recommend all of these + "Sorry". Definitely starting with "Adelaide" though, the perfect gateway track

 

I will second Lapsley, when I saw her perform this song at SXSW I was spellbound.

 

I recommend Banks to anyone who's into minimalist R&B like FKA Twigs and The Weeknd's Trilogy mixtapes. Lots of really sexy stuff on her debut album.

Here's the first and only song she's released from her upcoming second album:

 

I really like After You as well.

 

I'd add the band Wolf Alice (fronted by Ellie Rowsell) to the list, also.

 

Japanese house
Carly Rae jepson
Daya
Haim
Now now

 

I am in absolute love with PVRIS.

 

Allie X is a singer/ producer from Ontario who's been one of the most exciting synthpop artists to watch for the past couple years imo.

Ladylike Lily is a French musician who writes dark, dreamy folk songs & is slated to release her second LP later in 2016.

Emilie & Ogden is a harpist out of Montreal and her debut record from last year is a baroque pop gem.

 

My personal favorite Meg Myers song, off her 2012 debut EP "Daughter in the Choir"

 

Brandi Carlile is probably my favorite female artist. I've also really been enjoying Lucius lately.

 

@Essie So so so happy you're here. I've discovered some great stuff because of you. Again, really happy you popped up here

@chhholly123 Brandi Carlile is fantastic. Also love that Lucius album a lot.

 

Another great Meg Myers track, and the video is creepy as hell haha

 

This band is pretty good: Dealing with The Weird, by Fucko
They kind of remind me of Paramore, except I like them better.

 

Ladyhawke has a new album coming out this year and she's amazing

also I imagine everyone here is already listening to Courtney Barnett but just in case

both are also LGBTQIA which is cool too

 

Gabrielle Aplin x1000
Ellie Goulding's early acoustic stuff
I second PVRIS
Fickle Friends
Kate McGill

 

Denmark's Oh Land is a pop treasure who dispenses clever & danceable tracks with more hooks than a Bass Pro Shop.

Claire de Lune, previously of hip-hop trio The Chalice (which also features Lizzo), forms one half of Minneapolis' R&B unit Tiny Deaths.

Former Carissa's Wierd guitarist & vocalist Jenn Champion / S crafts songs that will tear your gay heart into pieces.

 

The song that got me hooked on Meg Myers in the first place

 

The Box Tiger

Weakened Friends

 

@Essie I love Oh Land SO HARD lol

I'm so impressed by this thread right now. Awesome recommendations!
