Current music

I love music and listen to copious amounts. It guides me through moods and on occasion makes me think.

I recently fell in love with an unreleased Norah Jones song "Moon Song" from a 2004 DVD. It has easily become one of my favorites, capturing her stunning voice and soft jazz elements. Norah Jones is one of my very few favorite artists.

Bon Iver's new EP "Blood Bank." A great follow-up to tide fans over after "For Emma, Forever Ago", Blood Bank soothes. My favorite song is "Woods' followed by "Babys", "Blood Bank" and "Beach Baby."

Matt Peterson has an unreleased single "Something Good." It's catchy, jazzy, and sweet.

Brett Dennen's semi new disc "Hope for the Hopeless" is also good.

I'm excited for Ben Kwller's new CD "Changing Horses." I listened to three songs from it on myspace last night. Kind of more twangy sounding than past discs. Hopefully there isn't too much twang.

I'm also listening to the Jayhawks, Sara Bareilles, and Josh Ritter.
