Nice Single-Instrument Artists

[LUCPIX]

Hey !

I'm looking for some recommendations of artists/bands that focus in just a single (or 2) instrument(s), don't matter what instrument it is! If you want 1 or 2 examples, you can take the California Guitar Trio - that spectacular... trio that makes wonders with 3 guitars in hands - and AIR, whose powerful weapon of them is a couple of Synthesizers :D As simple as these.

Hope that "request" isn't confusing to you!! And thank you for improving this boring and dusted playlist ;)

Apocalyptica (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZFl0gQLz2k) are a pretty prominent single instrument band who primarily use cellos (though they do have dashes of guitar, drums, and keyboard in some of their music). Bond (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooxyMYoRpMU) are another one who mostly use violins and violas, although their music is often layered with other instruments. There are many post-rock bands whose primary instruments are guitars and drums; God is an Astronaut (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uevKxa6sjFA) are a really good one who don't usually have any vocals. I really love their song The End of the Beginning. There's also This Will Destroy You (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdqT3MDAG2w), who are a favourite of mine, and then there are the Yoshida Brothers (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wx8BVGHMiC0) (who I believe I have already mentioned to you), who both play the shamisen.

We've definitely discussed Yoshida Brothers a few times, especially when I was helping you do the jingles. The live performances of them are incredible and the chemistry they have when it comes to playing the instruments is as equal or greater than two Siamese twins.


God is An Astronaut is as interesting as the clip of it, even being quite ... fatalistic :P I'll check the other ones tonight - thank you
