5 Eclectic Bands To Break The Monotony
Jacques Lowe

I don’t know about you, but I love change. I can’t stand doing the same things the same exact way every day, and this includes the music I listen to. I’m constantly on the lookout for bands willing to break out of the norm and stretch the rules to fit their unconventional ways. So if you ever find yourself bored with your music and need something fresh, I hope this list will help you out. The bands below are some of the most unconventional and out-of-the-box artists I know of. So buckle up, sit back, and enjoy!


Twenty One Pilots

Kickin' it off with the most eclectic band I know and love, duo Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun of twenty one pilots are the epitome of out-of-the-box; in fact, they went and broke the box. You may have heard their hit singles: "Stressed Out," "Tear In My Heart," or "Ride". However, their music ranges from ukulele tunes ("House of Gold") and piano ballads ("Goner") to spitfire rap ("HeavyDirtySoul") and everything in between.


Gungor

Husband and wife, Michael and Lisa Gungor are truly artistic in their endeavor to express themselves through music in entirely original ways. Gungor is most famous for their singles, "Beautiful Things" and "I Am Mountain," but if you've ever explored the rest of their music you'll find this band tends to stick to the path less trodden.


Imagine Dragons

Most known for their hit single, "Radioactive," Imagine Dragons likes to routinely break the boundaries of conventional music and this list just wouldn't be complete without them.

Judah And The Lion

Their older music may be more traditional sounding folk-style music, but with their new album, "Folk Hop N' Roll," they've taken on a new kind of genre. Their new music crosses modern techno style music with the traditional folk.


Lindsey Stirling

Another genre-crossing artist and first of her kind, Lindsey Stirling is a dancing, dubstep violinist. Curious? Take a listen. If you like this, then you'd love her new single, "The Arena."

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."
