Obscure artists you did not discover until after they disbanded or died.

Not sure if Joy Division counts as obscure, but I joined that party after it was over.

NVM "obscure"

Roy Buchanan would be that for me, then.

The Specials
I've been on quite The Specials kick lately, currtently my most frequently played artist.

Fun fact, I believe Elvis Costello produced their debut album.

I was on a major major classic rock burn through the 90's and early 2000's so I didnt entertain anything else


I was late to the Chris Cornell party but that dude was amazing and I really did not listen to his music till it was almost too late

Discovered the Brit indie band “Delays” on Spotify a few years back. I thought the singer was a chick with a really raspy voice. Good songs! After looking them up I discovered that the singer was a guy with a really impressive falsetto voice. I also learned that he had just died of bowel cancer at 43

This doesn't qualify for the latter part but they are definitely obscure. Years ago I saw Built to Spill at a small venue and their opener was a band called Mothers. Never heard of them obviously. They were from Athens so that piqued my curiosity and I really dug their sound. The lead is a female with a pretty distinct voice which you probably love or hate. But I love their overall sound. Here are my faves by them:

It hurts until it doesn't

Copper Mines

Lockjaw
