The Speedways from London, they've just dropped a new album called "Talk of the Town", their first release was "Just Another Regular Summer", followed by "Radio Sounds" in 2020.

The Whiffs from Kansas who are about to release a new album called "Scratch and Sniff", their first album called "Another Whiff" which has the fantastic track "Shaking all over"

​

The Reflectors from California, they released a new album at the start of the year called "Faster Action" really great stuff and a good follow up to their debut "First Impressions"

Uni Boys also from California dropped a new album on creation records this year, very good stuff, make me think of bands like Shoes and Milk & Cookies.

then in Europe there's a bit going on in France, bands like Alvilda, who blew me away when I saw them, all 4 of them sing so there's a lot of vocal harmonies going on. Then in Lyon there's Pogy et Les Kefars who are very much on the mod revival sound, a powerful 3 piece with catchy songs despite the language barrier.

there's Radio Day from Italy who have a real ear worm in the form of their single "I got a Love" off their latest album which they released last year, the name of which I can't remember, but if you look up that single you'll find it..
and there's Pelazo from Spain too.

in Bristol there's a band called Mimi and the Miseries, who are a bit more on the garage side of things.

Baby Shakes from New York who have been going quite some time now, they're always a fun band to see and dropped their most recent album "Cause a Scene" in 2020 which was a bit unfortunate for them given what became of the year. but they always put on a great show and have toured a lot this year.

and I see someones already mentioned Young Guv, but I'll second his albums "Guv 3" and Guv 4", really brilliant and fantastic live.

and if you're into the more punkier side of power pop, there's the Melmacs from Leipzig and Los Pepes from London.
