If anyone is interested:
Heard of:
Black Keys, black Sabbath, the Shins, Afghan Whigs, Die Antwoord, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Franz Ferdinand, Santigold, Alabama Shakes, Jack White, Sigur Ros,
Actually Heard:
Shins, Die Antwoord, Chili Peppers, Franz Ferdinand, Alabama Shakes,Sigur Ros.
Die Antwoord has lasted at least a year longer than I thought they would. And I liked them but thought their schtick would get old pretty quickly.

A better question would be how many do I know and feel would be worth seeing. A few.
To be even more critical, I could break it down to how many would I feel worth seeing in a festival setting... wow, that's a tough one.

Didn't read them all, but I know many or most.
Is the head and the heart a big band? I did a poster for them.
We have a free "new music Monday" series at our beautiful new bandshell downtown.
Most of the music is not new-- the main criteria seems to be "rock bands some people have heard of but that aren't big enough to be crowd control problems."
One lineup was The Head and The Heart with Iron and Wine.
Unfortunately, both bands had breakthrough somgs that got airplay between the time they were signed and the concert. It was a disaster, and they had to come up with a whole bunch of new crowd control protocols for subsequent shows (they hand't had or needed head counts or hand stamping prior).
Here's The Head and the Heart's "breakthrough" song.

I'd be most interested in The Shins personally (can't get enough of Simple Song) followed by the usual mainstream "names"-- Chilis, Franz, maybe Dawes, Florence.
Also-- have you all seen Walk Off The Earth's "viral" Gotye cover?
I got dragged to a Black Sabbath concert about 15 years ago and actually fell asleep during the music...
