Former pro surfer from Oahu's North Shore whose unhurried acoustic songs, 'Better Together' and 'Banana Pancakes' among them, made beach-day folk a mainstream sound.
Singer-songwriterAcousticFolk-rock
Brittany Howard's voice is the whole argument: southern soul-rock that sounds like it was recorded in a room too small for it.
Southern rockSoulBlues rock
Banjo-led Ohio folk warmth: campfire songs grown to amphitheater size, with ragged harmonies that make sincerity feel like the whole point.
Folk
Deadpan Melbourne songwriting full of tiny observed details, over guitar that gets a lot noisier live, with a slacker delivery hiding a genuinely ferocious player.
Indie-rockSlacker-rock
Montana 'galaxy grass' is bluegrass instrumentation pushed toward psychedelia and volume, jamgrass with actual gravitational pull.
BluegrassJamgrass
Sammy Rae's sprawling Brooklyn collective, a horn-heavy band folding jazz, funk and soul into big-hearted pop, with 'Kick It to Me' as its calling card.
Alternative
West Virginia's gilded-age songbird: old-time, calypso, and honky-tonk swirled into something timeless, delivered in vintage lace and total command.
AmericanaOld-time
East Texas band whose southern rock runs far heavier than anything on country radio, built into a serious live draw by years of relentless touring.
Country
Attic-band indie rock with barefoot summer energy, loose, breezy Long Island guitar songs that built a word-of-mouth following from DIY beginnings.
Indie rock
Bertha: Grateful Drag
Jam bands
Cuban singer Erik Iglesias fusing Afro-Cuban rhythms with sweaty, James Brown-style funk, fronting a tight horn-driven band built for dancing.
Latin
Dammit Lauren!
Rock
Desperate Electric
Alternative
Izaak Opatz
Montana songwriter writing wry, loose-limbed country songs with a dry sense of humour and a voice that sounds worn in from the road.
Country
Leon Majcen
Country
Australia's percussive-guitar phenom plays open-tuned instrumentals that went viral for a reason, two hands doing a band's work.
AcousticInstrumental
Catskills barn-band Americana that is ragged, literate, and joyful, with story-songs played like a family argument in the best way.
Americana
The Hip Abduction
St. Petersburg, Florida band blending reggae rhythms and African-inflected guitar lines into breezy, sun-bleached alt-pop.
