I don’t remember a time where music wasn’t a part of my life. I grew up listening to oldies with my dad, even dancing in the living room to his vinyl records. As a child I was attached at the hip to my Walkman, constantly listening to music and (usually) singing at the top of my lungs. Not much has changed! I do miss playing instruments like I used to and singing in choir (church choir just doesn’t cut it!). I now get my fixes by attending way too many concerts and closely following a couple of bands. What music can’t I live without, you ask? Let’s see…
- Hanson. Always number one.
- Stephen Kellogg & the Sixers.
- Trevor Jackson.
- Locksley.
- Matchbox Twenty.
- MercyMe.
- Selah.
- Derek Webb.
- Copeland.
- Aireline.
- Anberlin.
I enjoy quite a few oldies:
- James Taylor.
- Cat Stevens.
- The Carpenters.
- The Guess Who.
- America.
- The Doobie Brothers.
- Led Zeppelin.
- The Eagles.
- Carole King.
- Blood, Sweat, & Tears.
- 2nd Chapter of Acts.
- Elton John.
- Billy Joel.
Lately I’ve been getting in to a lot of new music. For a long time I was kind of stuck in the Hanson + oldies rut, but I’m really branching out. I find myself actually enjoying some of the stuff my husband listens to, which is way more hard rock than I normally like. I keep falling in love with opening acts, and going to so many shows is giving me plenty of exposure. Yay, new music! Boo, not enough money to buy every album!
