I'll probably babble about artists and music below, but here's a music player with songs I like! I tried to keep it to one song per artist, buuuut who knows if that happened.
MISSIO is a band I listed to a LOT while working in retail- Their music helped get me through my opening shifts at Sam's Club. The youtube algorithm just manifested them, and that was that.
Nigel Stanford (he/him) is not someone I listen to often, nor do I listen to a lot of his songs. The two listed below are just.... musically impressive, technically impressive, and get me excited for whatever I'm about to do. If no other songs on any of these lists, please go listen to- AND WATCH!- these!
I'm already running out of things to say! I think it's neat that AJR is a group of brothers!
Lil Nas X (he/him)!!! I listened to him SO MUCH as he slowly dropped his first two albums! I really love his work! I don't think you'll like most of his work but- LIFE AFTER SALEM, TALES OF DOMINICA, and ONE OF ME are gentler.
I KNOW THERE'S ONLY ONE SONG BUT it's very beautiful and haunting, the acoustic backing and their vocals are just. So good.
