They have really amassed an impressive portfolio of up and comers over the past couple years.

Foster the People
Sleigh Bells
Fun
Frank Ocean
Mumford and Sons

And that's not counting great performances by established artists.

Never heard of Alabama Shakes before and it was like a religious experience. Mix up Tracy Chapman, Janis Joplin The Band and Prince. I sat and watched it 4 times. Went online and bought the album.

Sorry if I get more music info from watching TV than wading through a multi-page webpage.

Luddite that I am.

I enjoyed The Lumineers on there recently. I'm a sucker for a cute girl with a nice voice and ruby red lipstick.

Now that you mention it, they may have played both. I distinctly remember them on Fallon, though. It was probably a little less than a year ago.

Lumineers were awesome, no question. I also like that girl.

FYI: Alabama Shakes were also on ACL last night along with Gary Clark Jr. Can watch here: http://video.pbs.org/video/2328958204

When I watch, I literally have never heard of about 80% of the acts. So I'm probably getting old. Get off my lawn

Sounds like the set list at the Grammy's.

Muse are freaking Awesome! I was more excited to see them opening for U2 in 2009. This Saturday I'll see them again, this time as the headliner. Their new(est) album The 2nd Law is very good. Every album starting from Absolution has been money.

"The Resistance" is one of my favorite albums of ALL TIME. Muse is right up there with Radiohead for me.

Sounds like a blast, in the concert vids i've watched they REALLY pack a stadium.

I love them not only for the music, but the themes they write about... they are very much with the times.
