I love discovering new music. I love going through Spotify and seeing new music change every Friday, searching through related artists and seeing what other people are listening to. Through all my new music discoveries this week, I'm here to give you three bands you might not have heard of, but definitely should know.
1. JPNSGRLS
JPNSGRLS, pronounced "Japanese Girls", could be my favorite discovery of the week. JPNSGRLS is a Canadian garage-pop band that formed in Vancouver back in 2010. They have two full albums and an early EP. They give off a gritty vibe, with deep lyrics.
2. Beach Weather
Beach Weather is actually not a band I've recently discovered, but definitely deserve their time in the spotlight. I saw Beach Weather open for PVRIS, my favorite alternative band, and instantly fell in love. They have smooth songs, with a lot of variety and are overall, a solid core group. Their debut EP is called What A Drag.
3. MUNA
Caitlin White of Stereogum described MUNA as "a dark pop girl band from LA who have no qualms about being stubborn as hell" and I completely agree. If you're a fan of the band HAIM (which has a brighter, yet similar sound), or just love cool ladies, with good jams and a unique voice, you'll definitely want to check out MUNA. Their debut EP is called The Loudspeaker.
