I've realised that there's loads of great bands out there that don't fall into our regular categories here... Crossover bands mostly, I guess... List them here 
Senser (hip-hop with bits of metal) Sisters Of Mercy (one of the original "Goth" bands... rock / electronic beats / opera-style backing singers) Hocus Pocus (funk - hip-hop) St Germain (jazz - electronica) Bring 'em on... |

I live on the wrong side of the world and was born too late for a lot of the artists I like and would have wanted to see live. |

Yep and born in 77, so that means Hendrix was dead, Zeppelin had almost split up, Queen toured when I was 8 for example. Dave Dobbyn is a very cool entertainer, great to watch and listen to. We also have the Finn brothers, Tim and Neil(also Neil's son Liam is making waves too). |

We had an advert on TV for holidays in New Zealand and there was some band doing a song called "Waiting", so I looked into it and found out it had been written by Dave Dobbyn so I downloaded a few of his songs. I'll check out The Finn Brothers too.

TV on the Radio - Their music is difficult to classify and is often described as experimental rock or post-punk. But their music spans through numerous diverse genres, including freeform jazz and a cappella music, psychedelia and trip-hop, modern soul and classic rock. |
