There is so much good music & so many great bands out there. If anything, we’re overwhelmed by the amount of information that’s available. So why is it so hard to find new bands or songs to listen to? Below, I have compiled a summarized list of resources that can be really helpful if you’re looking for new music to listen to.
Use these links. They are our real ‘power tools’. Remember that the content is being updated constantly at each of the URLs below, so checking the list once a day (or week or month) should keep you in-the-know about latest releases and reviews 🙂
