Here’s what’s on my iPod this week because it’s been raining and cold every single day followed by T storms so my brain thinks we’re entering Autumn despite the fact that Summer just kicked off. I’ve been bundled up in a raincoat and scarf, sipping lattes to stay warm and listening to my usual Autumn tunes which tends to be a little mellow and folksy.
Laura Veirs, Saltbreakers, is such a great folksy CD. Singer-songwriter Laura is based in Seattle (such a great indie music scene in the pacific northwest, huh?) and her lyrics and voice are quite good.
Another artist that fits rainy weather with all my candles aglow in the window is British songstress Adele who is quite the songbird, isn’t she? Really good for the soul.
Right now though I’m feeling like dancing so I have Rihanna on, a little Breaking Dishes is a fun way to start the long weekend….

I was so captivated by the fabric collage art in the background that I was unable to focus on your music suggestions…Sorry! ;)
Do you know who the artist is?

Adele is really lovely. I’d like to note that Duffy is another good British artist, really big over there!
The whole 60’s-mod-beehive-and-minis is very “in” over there.
I tried to get my mother into Duffy, but she’s too set in her Michael Buble ways… at least it’s a bit better than when it was all Dixie Chicks -all the time-.
