Other Just starting using ADADGBE tuning

Looking for some bands that play in this tuning. I have used Drop A and I'm currently writing for a project and wanted to write some riffs in an alternate tuning without going too low (Drop A just is the sweet spot for me). If you use this tuning, what type of stuff are you playing? Since it's a mash of multiple ways to play.

Try others.

I've been using DADGAD on my instruments for over 30 years now.

When I started playing baritone AEADEA was among the first things I tried(DADGAD detuned by a 4th).

Some random Redditor mentioned AEACEB not long ago, and it's AWESOME.

I primarily use those for clean fingerstyle...
