Bands to check out

Here are some bands to check out, they aren't as popular as I believe they should be so give them a look and see what you think...

• Filligar
• Mean Creek
• Tender Mercies
• Margot and the Nuclear So & So's
• Young the Giant
• We Are Augustines
• The Barr Brothers
• Brad Byrd
• Cold War Kids
• The Head and the Heart

Check those bands out, they all have interesting styles but they make it work. Mean Creek opened up for the Counting Crows when I saw them in Minneapolis and they were very good and are a new band.
