I checked out the John Mayer Trio after I already was a fan of John Mayer
I think that the John Mayer Trio's Set list is often far superior to John Mayer's Solo Project, even though they both have Pino Palladino [Bass] and Steve Jordan [Drums].
It's just my opinion, I just like this band better. Even when they do the same songs, there is something...unleashed about the John Mayer Trio.
Noticeable Traits:

Gorillaz is a super classic band, and for a good reason. With some of the best combinations of electronic music, featuring artists from Mos Def, to MF Doom, it's a really incredible band.
Their newest album, "The Fall", was even recording entirely on an iPad! I highly recommend they become an integral part to your music library, and I've been listening to them for the last month straight (Religiously).
