Hello! I've been reading you, with constant nodding and approbation, for a month or so, but until now I didn't know whether you were a jazz person or not. You are! (I nod; I approve.) Here's my recommendation for you - Matthew Shipp! Two weeks ago he played in DC; I've been listening to him for almost 30 years and never thought I'd see him live. Start with "Before the World" if you can. If it's not your sort of thing, that's fine of course. Thanks for blogging.
I'm quite familiar with LaFarge and The Roches. The others, mostly not.
Sometimes I can spend hours skimming YouTubes, enjoying fresh finds. I also recall Austin City Limits, Darryl's House and 'Got Talent' shows to provide great leads.
