    Not sure if theres a better forum for posting this on if so please move this.

    I'm trying to find some new bands to listen to and I was hoping people here could recommend some to me. I really like

    tegan & sara
    an horse
    snow patrol
    matchbox20
    goo goo dolls
    silversun pickups
    dashboard confessional

    I'd be v grateful for any suggestions people have for other bands to check out that they think I might like/would be similar to the bands above. Thanks.

    Hi there -
    Well since I am a rabid Tegan and Sara fan and like An Horse and nearly everyone else on your list I thought I would throw out some suggestions, so here goes!
    1. Susie Sue - amazing voice, some great songs, my fave 'Give me Heart' is hard to find.
    2. Sia - another beautiful voice.
    3. Ray Lamontagne - AMAZING!
    4. City & Colour - (currently on tour w/T & S)
    5. The Fray - fun music

    Hope this helps!

    Saw them support Death Cab For Cutie back in August and they weren't bad. Have you gotten into Death Cab yet? They would be an essential for any music lover.

    Substitute 'fun' with 'boring drivel' and you'd be spot on.

    Avoid like the plague.

    You might like the Wallflowers, nice tunes although I don't know if they're still on the go!
    The Coral too.
