5 Bands/Artists You Should Be Following [Week Two]

I’m kicking off this week’s list with a couple of Instagram discoveries.

1. Cody Katastrophic

A singer/songwriter as well as a guitarist. He has a few covers posted, but this is what captured my attention.

3. Almost Kings

If you’ve been paying attention, you already know about my love of this Atlanta-based rap/rock band. And if you haven’t listened to them yet, what are you doing with your life?! Lol.

4. Matt Gothic (Metal Matt)

A solo artist from Bristol, UK. He recently uploaded some videos of himself playing with a full band, so you should definitely check out my favorite, “You Know That I’m Here.”
