Or maybe you recognize some of the names, but you wouldn’t recognize any of their music if your life depended on it.

We have good news. It doesn’t have to be like that. You don’t have to feel like you stopped being musically relevant after 1985.

Be brave. Take a look at the schedule below and pick out a few artists you don’t know, like Lily Allen, M. Ward, Andrew Bird, Lykke Li, Anya Marina or Shemekia Copeland. Then watch them. Who knows, you just might discover you’re not that out of touch after all.

Speaking of 1985, did you hear shoulder pads are back? And acid washed denim? Don’t believe it? Look at this. Yikes.
