I’ve been making a habit of visiting smaller artists’ Spotify profiles to find their own personal playlists. Greg from Cheekface has a few nice playlists that get updated time to time. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4a8I8hdJbw9BYf4ouaJFCs?si=cFhgUCN0RxO7FHJG3XpVpQ

if you want a band recommendation: my favorite band right now is The Brave Little Abacus, an emo band from New Hampshire, really love their stuff.
