I am with Connie, I like First Aid Kit very much, they are on all of my playlists. I also like Brandi Carlile , anything that is pure singer songwriting with some folk, celtic or country tunes, like The Avett Brothers, Kacey Musgraves, The Highwomen, Johnny Cash... some Beatles and Abba songs, Passenger, I love the compilations of AlexRainbird on Youtube, some very nice Indie Folk.

Thanks for asking, music is such an individualist hobby...... love my playlists with my facourites.

I have very broad tastes, but lately for some reason I've been really into, like, late 80s, early 90s hair metal? 😅 Like Mötley Crüe, Poison, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, Ratt, Cinderella, that kina thing.

I’ve been listening to some old school hip hop/rap and a lot of 90s rock. Some of the groups/bands: Tribe Called Quest, Digable Planets, Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, Dave Matthews Band, and some Smashing Pumpkins. 🎶

Normally, I like her, but I couldn’t get into this one.

I listen to hard rock so…Korn, Bring Me the Horizon, Jellyroll, Falling in Reverse, Ghost, Motionless in White to name a few!

I will say I like all genres, so I also like Adele, Keith Urban, and Chris Stapleton!

Your tastes are eclectic, like mine. I don't think there are many artists, if any, for whom I can say I like their entire song list.

I usually let my kids pick the music when I take them to school. This morning I listened to Olivia Rodrigo, The Beatles, and Kate Bush. I’m procrastinating a deadline right now and am about to listen to the new Harry Styles album while I crank out some worlds, but I also live the latest Florence + The Machine album so much, I may switch

The only artist you've mentioned that I don't know is Olivia Rodrigo. I love the others, though.

She is incredibly talented. Her debut album Sour came out last year. She was only 18. Her music intrigues me because it's so popular with both Gen Z and Gen X. I was so interested in the way her songs are composed I wrote an entire blog post about it:
