Hana Stretton
Uniquely spare, meditative tracks with creative instrumentation, ambient sounds and overdubbed harmonies. Great quiet background music.

Ninja Sex Party
Nerd comedy rock. Very well executed 1980's style songs. Check out "I Own a Car" and "Cool Patrol."

Drug Church
Unusual to say this, but this punk rock has wonderful arrangements, and effective use of instrumental octaves/harmonics and delicate...

Winnetka Bowling League
Acoustic based indie pop-rock that suffers from verse-chorus-verse monotony, and vocals that are too thin.

Leaving Time
Unoriginal shoe gaze rock with very similar sounding songs that use the same unintelligible vocal cadences and roiling guitar fuzz.

Carbon Leaf
Like a less fun Barenaked Ladies, crossed with a less interesting Death Cab for Cutie.

The Linda Lindas
Poppy alternative rock with some punky elements. Good vocals. A couple band members are still in high school! From L.A.
