Here's some of my favorite sites:

https://www.npr.org/sections/new-music/

https://www.youtube.com/user/theneedledrop/videos

+ the related artists section on Spotify.

There's also this really cool site: http://www.musicbanter.com

Kinda shocked it wasn't the first place you looked.

Between here, and youtube, or through some creative googling and searching. Sometimes through word of mouth, though that's rare these days for me as I'm quite a bit less social than I used to be.

I listen to a lot of radio, and I stream via Apple music, so if I heat something I like in the radio, I will search it on Apple or Spotify alternately, and get all the albums.

Found so much great music this way.
