if we are doing just our home town, the town we grew up in (and went to middle school/high school), i would feel like im lying if i did more than a ten mile radius.
so in that case, here is the list.

no one.

unless you consider one emo band not many people have heard of. i dont even want to name them because its embarrassing.

Where the hell do you guys get all those names from? I know one "nationally famous" singer from my hometown area, and that's because the rumours travel fast around those parts.

Where are you from? Some people know more music than others, and Wikipedia is a good place to check out.

We have several great musicians / bands who are combining the fusion of Jazz and Indonesian Ethnic music, such as:
Krakatau: http://www.krakatau.net/
World Peace Orchestra: http://www.worldpeaceorchestra.com/
http://www.dwiki.com/2009/05/15/world-p ... indonesia/
http://www.dwiki.com/2009/05/26/cd-dwik ... available/
Dwiki Dharmawan: http://www.dwiki.com/

They are some of my biggest influence.
