If you’ve ever caught a performance by The Extraordinaires, then you know why there is plenty of positivity around their name, and understandably so. Their quirky folk-rock ditties are pretty inventive in lyrical content combining good old fashioned high-energy tunes with a fish-shaped guitar. Word is they have some new songs in the works, so that’s one more thing to keep in mind. Orbit to Leslie can take your breath away with their perfectly crafted pop that contains elements of surf, grunge, and everything between, aiming straight for the stratosphere. "The World Was Saved with Chocolate Cake" never gets old (at least for this guy). Also keep an eye out for the mangled punk of Drunken Sufis, the afro-pop-inspired PRUSSIA, and the goofy synth anthems of the Amil Byleckie Band.
