I generally enjoy a lot of music. One of the, probably, more unknown to you lot (who I assume are mostly Americans) is D-A-D.
The singer sounds a lil like the singer for Faster Pussycat. These guys sound familiar but I cant put my finger on it and I know I haven't heard of them before. Great music either way.
He's called Jesper Binzer - and one of Danish TV's favourite novelty clips is back from the 70s or so when he's interviewed as a rising star and asked about his background.
What he says goes something like this: "Well, I was unemployed and living on state aid. I didn't really want a job but needed something to do, so one of my friends said "Let's make a band!" and so we did. And it kind of worked out pretty alright." (When you're unemployed in Denmark, if you don't own anything of value (below $2k) you can get financial aid that's around $850 per month after taxes for a normal young person).
Bonus info: D-A-D was originally named "Disneyland After Dark", but something-something Disney didn't approve of it and sued them, so they changed the name.
