I'm a music junkie. I'll buy gas station coffee instead of Starbucks to cut pennies, but will open my wallet for any good new song. Thankfully I have a lot of really awesome people in my life who are constantly introducing me to new, amazing music. So now, I'd like to return the favor and pass on some songs that I think you need to discover. A lot of these songs you can download for free, or at least listen to on their myspace pages. So grab of cup of coffee, cheap or otherwise and start exploring these gems. I've listed 20, and yes, it was painful to narrow them down to just these.

This girl does have pretty great taste in music!
ReplyDeleteMy mission tomorrow: search for above music on iTunes.
ReplyDeleteAstral Weeks (the entire album) is beautiful. My mind hushes when I listen to it and writing juices seep from my temporal lobes.
TV on the Radio is fantastic!
This girl does have great taste. Where do you stand on The Arcade Fire? Of Montreal?
