I mean really obscure as in you’re probably one of ten people listening to it. This is kind of my thing.

    Rego (00s singer/songwriter/americana group from illinois). From the Royal Arcade is a great album and After the War is probably my favorite song on it. Cant find either posted online anywhere but they should be on streaming services.

    minerva lions (2010s indy group from new york). i guess they only released an EP and disappeared: https://minervalions.bandcamp.com/album/great-strides-priestess-queen

    Goblin (70s italian prog rock). the entire il fantastico viaggio del bagarozzo mark is incredible.

      Thank you for your recommendations, I have been enjoying them very much.

      I recommend the album “Cosmic Frog” by S2cool. Funky indie album, I love it. I think maybe he is focusing on a band he is in, “Fictionist,” although he also does writing for lots of other companies so not sure really…

      Also “07” by The Chicken Chokers. Bluegrass/string band album, it’s how I came to love bluegrass. These guys were active for a while in the New England area but I believe they have split and now some of them are playing in another band “Twang.”

      Finally, “Seara de Jazz cu Aura” by Aura Urziceanu. Romanian scatt jazz. I think she was pretty famous in Romania, but I have to take Wikipedia’s word for it. She eventually had a career in the USA; she certainly toured with some big names but it’s hard to tell if she was a success.
