This top-ten list has been carefully and lovingly curated from Low-Fi’s long and winding scroll of talented musicians. It reveals my soft spot for electronic pop and dreamy female vocals, but the selection also boasts an eclectic mix of styles and inspirations, from funk and soul to country and rock. What these talented musicians really have in common is their ability to whisk you away with their storytelling, to excite the imagination and transport you to hypnotic dream states, beloved childhood memories, and whimsical fairy tales. So, in the spirit of Low-Fi’s intimate and alternative concerts, I have detailed each artist selection with a fantasy scenario – or possible future Low-Fi concert? – describing what I’m listening to, where I am, and what I’m drinking. I’ll let the music inspire you for yourself from there.

This is the Low-fi Backstage the place where a handful of music-afficionados hold up the microphone for music to sing at the top of its lungs.
