More and more lately I'm using Twitch for background music while working. It's kind of like having a low-key live concert going on every day. Here are some of my favorites (I follow a ton of others but these are the ones that I'll usually hop over to as soon as I see them go live):
- Joliet4 has an absolutely goosbumps-insane voice, and just released her first album on bandcamp.
- Mandy Prater is a pretty regular streamer, but usually later in the day for me so it's rare she's on while I'm working.
- Tyler Levs has really cool originals, does a lot of loops and covers, love him.
- JXOTX doesn't stream as often but has a big nostalgia factor for me because he covers a lot of stuff from the 90s that I grew up with.
- Astravert does all original improvised electric guitar jams. Insane skills.
- Fish in a Birdcage does mostly originals on his electric cello--really unique and awesome sound.
Anyone else into live Twitch music? Would love some recommendations on other streamers to check out and follow.
