yES so probably most of these everyone already knows but anyway

tumblr musicians:

youtube musicians:

Professional ones:

  • Айрэ и Саруман / Aire & Saruman (basically all of their songs are either Tolkien or Robin Hobb based)
  • Caprice (their Of Beren and Luthien is lovely, though I think they have more tolkien-based)
  • Oonagh (songs Orome, Eldamar and Gäa)
  • Хелависа / Melnitsa has a cover of May it Be in russian
    and under name  Хелависа / Hellawes has more Tolkien-based (Legolas’s Song to the Sea is really nice)
  • Bob Catley (his The End of Summer is about Galadriel)
  • Lind Erebros (the whole album Elven Oratory, it’s mostly instrumental)
  • Aonis (Fall of Gil-Galad to make yourself sad)
  • Broceliande (Galadriel’s Lament to make yourself even sadder)
  • The Hobbitons
  • The Fellowship (some of their songs are on youtube)
  • The Tolkien Ensemble (love their Galadriel’s Song of Eldamar)
  • Blind Guardian is obvious but still great–
  • Summoning’s In Hollow Halls Beneath The Fells (thanks to noteli for telling me about the band)
  • Bttlelore has basically all songs based on Tolkien (really love their Fangorn; thanks to duresteintrepide for telling me about them)
  • LotR musical’s songs are always great
  • also in BBC’s Dramatization Bill Nighy (Sam’s voice) sung the lovely Song of Gil-Galad

definitely missed out a lot
