There are many artists I enjoy that may not be as well-known and popular as they deserve to be. Take a look at some and see if they might add some value to your life.
Roy Zimmerman is a folk satirist that entertains while he makes you think.
The Los Angeles Times says, “Zimmerman displays a lacerating wit and keen awareness of society’s foibles that bring to mind a latter-day Tom Lehrer.”
Americana and New Folk by Return to Normal
You can listen to tracks from this amazing album by clicking on the cover above. Return to Normal is an independent artist.
Creative, funny, serious, soulful, pop, folk, political. I don't know how to describe The Gregory Brothers except to say totally entertaining. No single clip does them justice since they are so versatile.
I know the Gregory Brothers is not an undiscovered group. The clip below has over a million views. But I love them and I still talk to people who have never heard of them. They also do regular music that I think gets overlooked. Explore!
Louis CK is another underrated talent. You may want to steer clear if profanity or the actual words for body parts offend you. He has some of the most accurate observations of the human condition. His series on the FX network called Louie is worth checking out. It is a different type of comedy show veering wildly from silly comedy, to painful relationships, to strange family, to unconventional parenting.
