Paste’s Best of What’s Next

Just a few days ago, Paste posted its Best of What’s Next Issue, which gave a shout out to Brooklyn’s own Spirit Family Reunion, as well as one of our favorites from Newport, TYPHOON.

BUT, there were a bunch of new bands in the issue that have never mentioned here before. Here are a few that you won’t want to miss…

• My Morning Jacket guitarist Carl Broemel’s side project
• Michigan song writer Chris Bathgate
• Modern New Orleans sounds of MyNameIsJohnMichael
• FOXY South Carolinian songwriter Nikki Lane
• Sweet sounds of Dixie by the Pistol Annies (also foxy)
• Self-proclaimed Steve Earle of Columbus, Ohio Lydia Loveless
• Denver’s The Luminarees WHOA
