Currently Listening To...

I've been trying to work on my music education a little bit because I've realized that I'd gotten into the habit of liking whatever my friends were enjoying and not really coming up with my own taste of music. Obviously, people tell you about artists and you listen and then decide if you like the music or not. To be honest, I'm not picky when it comes to music. I love a lot of it. I pretty much like whatever my friends like too because there is so much out there. I went to a show last Sunday that featured some local artists including: The Daredevil Christopher Wright, We are the Willows, and the Laarks. All great music groups! The DCW is my friend, M's brother's band. They're great and I would highly recommend checking them out. So.. to go along with the title of this posting, I'm currently listening to:
- Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros (entire album)
- The Daredevil Christopher Wright (both albums)
- The Noisettes ('Never Forget You')
- Lady Antebellum (I'm always listening to some country or other haha - I do like their top song right now)
- Akon's "Oh Africa" song fearturing Keri Hilson
- Matisyahu (his Light album has a couple of really good ones including "One Day" and "We Will Walk")

So, do you have some other musicians I should check out?

Wow, you're incredibly eccentric in a very good way. I most definitely need to venture out in the music world haha. Love you!

I don't know any of these groups.
I need to get out more!
I feel so sheltered.
