Ichthyic ... Do you read history? I don't think so.
Native Americans are by definition Pagan. Hindus are Pagan. There are many Pagan faiths, some old and some new in the world today. Socrates was a Pagan.
You're seriously misinformed, or at least, deluded.

By Native Americans, I mean those who practice Native faith and traditions, not those who adopted (by choice or coersion) modern faiths.

amazing grace-written by a man that was a slave trader-a total pagan-Like Bobby Dylan-he has songs from the pagan side and songs once he came to know Jesus Christ personally as savior and best friend. David in Jesus amazing grace that saved a wretch like me. John 3 repented and born again to know the kingdom of heaven-which before as a Jew it was all pagan to me.

To be honest, I don't really know of any openly Pagan famous singers or groups. I'd love it if I could find some. The closest musician I can think of that has Pagan flavored songs is John Denver. I also like classical music such as by Beethoven, Mozart, Pachelbel.
My favorite singer is Hank Williams III, though.

Just FYI, about the only people who actively *refer* to themselves as pagans are neopagans. Indigenous people, Hindus, Buddhists and the rest all refer to themselves as religion-specific terms (and some may actually be offended if you call them a pagan--Native Americans who follow their ancestral cultural practices, for example, have a tendency to really dislike neopagans and New Agers--look up "plastic shamanism" sometime).
As to your question, I'm particularly fond of Icarus Witch. They're a black metal band out of Pittsburgh with a definite pagan slant to them. I also like Skyclad and the Dragon Ritual Drummers. And Glenn Danzig's solo works have a lot of ceremonial elements in the lyrics.

OutKast is the closest thing I can think of. ("What if God was a girl?") I love hip-hop and country, so I don't see much Pagan stuff I like.

Pasha and the Pagans. I like the folksy-type of music they sing and their humor.

Spiritually....I like to listen to Native American music.
But I like Oldies (50's & 60's)

Paganism died when philosophy was born. There has not been a single philosopher in all of history who defended pagan polytheism. There have been thousands of intelligent, thoughtful, questioning, honest philosophers who were Christian.
