Below is all the music I highly recommend and why I do.  Most of it is independent stuff because that's where the real music is.

Listen to Him  

 Blair Packham: Could've Been King
A true songwriter hailing from Canada with a great voice and ear for music.  His lyrics and tunes are catchy and vivid.  I will go back for his first album, Everything That's Good.  Highlights on the album are "Could've Been King", "The Opportunists", "One-Hit Wonder", "Coming Undone", "Mister Bitter" .. oh hell, the entire album is awesome. (myspace) (official)

Listen to Them  

 Class Three Overbite: Rendezvous
A group from Michigan that sounds like a mix of Beatles, Queen and Jellyfish.  Amazing sound that totally rocks.  Highlights on the album are "Milkshake", "Rendezvous" and "No Good Rotten."  (myspace) ("Life Is A Piece Of Cake" on YouTube

Listen to Them  

 Fools and Horses: Pop Filter
Out of Baltimore, Maryland, this group is catchy and rocks.  Highlights include "Would You Know", "The Therapy", "Frera" etc.  The whole album is great!  Put this on at a party and people will rock to it without having ever heard the songs. (myspace) (official)   ("Fly Me To The Moon" on YouTube) ("Would You Know" on YouTube)

Listen to Them  

 Junebug: First
From Wales in the United Kingdom, they are a good representation of what The Beach Boys would sound like if they got their start today.  Add a little Weezer punk sound and 80s rock for good measure and you have Junebug.  I actually bought their second and third albums too, each named Second and Third .  Highlights - "Can't Get You", "Cathode Sun", "Stuck on You."   (myspace) (official)

 

 

 

 Second Saturday

I gotta throw a shout-out to my favorite Indie band from Nashville, a power pop group whose influences include Brian Wilson, Green Day, ABBA, The Ramones and Lennon/McCartney among others.  Their first album was amazing and their second, an EP named Greetings from Mount Rockmore, was equally exciting.  Their next full-length album is due out this fall (any time now!!) and I'm holding my breath.  I've heard some demo tracks and the guys have outdone themselves.   (purevolume )
