Influential Unknowns in Music

Influential Unknowns in Music

Oliver Barnfield, Cool Guy/Entertainment Editor November 14, 2017
The same bland beats and melodies clutter up the radio stations of today.  Think about it. You’ve heard it. Searching for an antidote, many musicians created their own music.  While some, like U2 and Nirvana,to name two examples, proved massively successful.  Others merely released some excellent songs… but were lost in the vast pit of alternative music.  But somehow they were discovered by a select few- and those few took these lost artists and stole their style. Some of these influenced musicians became successful, leaving their obscure inspirations in the dust. So here I will be exploring these musicians and groups who were innovative but unknown.
