Also, we shouldn't forget instrumental music.

I renew the pleading. While we wait for it to be heard, I'd like to add some more notable acts:

*Fuel Fandango (since 2010). A mix of genres: funk, soul, electronica, flamenco, prog rock, folk, jazz and others. An original and brilliant band, especially when playing live. They sing in English and Spanish.
