While seeing the original 1970s Ethiopiques artists live might well be a once in a lifetime experience, there are a few other modern bands out there also flying the flag .
Below are listed our choice of the best modern ‘non-Ethiopian’ bands, all of whom have MySpace sites for you to go and listen to their music for free.

Either / Orchestra Myspace |
| Top US Ethiojazz Band! Gig List, Gallery, and 3 songs on this small, but well formed Myspace. |

 |
Debo Myspace |
| Ethio Mashups US band mashing up Ethiopian sounds into the strangest thing you’ve ever heard. Debo is a classic Amharic word means “communal labor”. Far Out! |

Bedume’s Band Myspace |
| Franco-Ethio French Afro-beat band (French language site) sliding into Ethio Groove thanks to use of singers. Touring continental Europe like crazy. |
