I’m angling for a distraction.
Name me a band or musician you like and I’ll recommend you at least one band or musician you might like.

I did follow a few songs from Imagine Dragons & the Foo Fighters.
The Seige

Scroobius Pip

Also, the Amps and Toadies!
Seldom Scene
Strata, 10 Years, Taproot, Submersed, Union Underground
Add in Them Crooked Vultures for good measure.
I came to Isbell thru the truckers so not a lot in that same genre.
The Head and the Heart - earlier albums
Especially his cover of California Dreaming https://youtu.be/CqDGTT2OtsQ
Ditto for Sam Roberts.
They do an amazing upbeat, techno, pop version of John Denver’s Take Me Home Country Roads.
Have you checked out Toadies? Screaming Trees might be your jam, too.
Recs: Run River North, Young the Giant, Sam Roberts
Recs: The Toxhards, Slotface, maybe Smoking Popes as well
Outside of their couple hits, The Black Crowes are real close in spirit.
If we’re going newer, try Ty Segall, The Record Company, and Kings of Leon.
Alternatively, RDGLDGRN.
What song did you listen to?
https://youtu.be/mIYPCxdkIzw?si=UoOwsoFWeeONxMOF
special edition of the concert in Bangladesh
Ravi Shankar, Leon, George Harrison
(But no Keanu, sadly.)
Recommendations: Hot Water Music, Rufio, Thursday
I know 2/3 of those well. Will check out Hot Water Music. Thanks!
Murder by Death
The Mighty Stef
Larry and His Flask
Wind Rose

But for the latter, I’d check out 500 Miles to Memphis. (Their song “Hold on Tight” and that whole album gave me good vibes.)
Sloppy Seconds
Gang Starr
Rancid
Trampled by Turtles
Have you checked out Wilco? And the Lemonheads? And for the more melancholy side, Fountains of Wayne is great. (“Valley Winter Song” is a good starter.)
More modern: The National, My Morning Jacket, Kings of Leon (beyond the hits), Gaslight Anthem
But perhaps Dawes would trip your trigger?
later albums
I'm a huge mmj fan!!
Amouranth
Also: Hey Monday and Blondshell
Gives me shivers each time
Tesky Brothers
Thee Oh Sees
Bob Marley
Middle Brother
Khruangbin
dZihan and Kamien
John Prine
Madeleine Peyroux
Postal Service - Such Great Heights
Temper Trap - Trembling Hands
I know you said bands. Feel free to ignore. My brain likes those tho.
Based on the Temper Trap track: “Camera” by Young the Giant
“The Heart is a Muscle” by Gang of Youth
“Sometime Around Midnight” by Airborne Toxic Event
Also I don't know other songs, but I feel like "The Woodpile" by Frightened Rabbit might be up your alley
I do listen to Frightened Rabbit, RIP Scott H
Kyuss and Queens of the Stone Age for sure.
Those are good bands.
I’m not well versed, so my only recommendation is Ladysmith Black Mambazo.
So I’ll also say Frank Turner, Brian Fallon, and Against Me.

Thank you.
Static Lullaby, Copeland, Spill Canvas, Allister
Hopefully someone else will come through ✔️
Also see if Fountains of Wayne catch your ear. (Just gotta move past the Stacy’s Mom of it all.)

Have some 80s music.

Gatsbys American Dream and Reggie & the Full Effect might work.
Have you listened to The Rosenberg Trio?
Queen
Taylor swift
Shania twain
The weekend
https://youtu.be/Fv6GuUamMgM?si=Nor-1XncdhDuddjS
last 3 can’t help u w.
Frightened Rabbit
Gang of Youths
Bloc Party - Silent Alarm
The Joy Formidable - The Big Roar
(Or get darker but keep the groovy bass with You Will Know Us By the Trail of the Dead)
And I have to throw in Dave Mason, though you probably know him.
Recommendations: The 502s, The Teskey Brothers
