The likes of Boy & Bear, Angus & Julia Stone (more about these significant siblings later) and then for today's love: Jinja Safari and The Delta Riggs.
Their sound has been described as Indie meets Forest Rock. I could not have put it better myself as it suits their style, look, sound just perfectly. Jinja Safari has the awesome ability to make you want to carve something out of something else and make music with it :-) Instruments such as the sitar, harmonium, flute, bamboo flute, bells and a tabla are what makes them so incredibly unique and inspiring.

This is quite a treat, their rendition of R Kelly's 'Ignition' on Triple J:

Ahhh The Delta Riggs....Now this is a band I'm liking more and more each day. Their music is very energetic, garage rock-ish... They are still a very young band (calling themselves a 2year old child in the music industry). I only really fall in love with and respect a band if they are able to perform exceedingly well live, which they sure do!!
Impressively, Elliott Hammond is not only the lead vocalist, but also plays drums, harmonica and organ. He also plays in Wolfmother (organ and percussion).
Keep your eye out for these guys; they will be sure to rock your socks off. Their debut LP, Hex.Lover.Killer, will be out April 12th.
