There's a lot of famous artists today, but I'd love to discover new pop music that is oriented around a band instead of an individual. Bands like the Beatles, Rolling Stones, and Pink Floyd have all topped the pop charts. Glenn Miller's Orchestra topped the pop charts in 1940 with a fully instrumental song In the Mood.
I can think of Sammy Rae and Friends, but no others. What are your favorite modern pop bands? Especially ones with a focus on instrumentals. Edit: thanks for the recs!

Yeah that's what I've been finding, but pop music in the rock and jazz days was still mostly oriented around a single artist and session musicians, but bands still became popular (even if it wasn't pop as a genre). So I figure there might still be some popular bands today.
