In my car: The Cure
On my home stereo: Eva Cassidy.

Also like Evanescence, Delerium, Dead Can Dance, Clannad.
ETA Sarah McLachlan, Lorena McKinnet. I know I’ll leave someone else out.

Early U2. Maria McKee.
 
Head over heels for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, despite their reputation.
 
There’s too many to list here, since I like everything from classical to country, jazz to metal, classic rock to pop, and of course, Christian music. I cannot stand rap or death metal.

However, my all time favorite is a great Canadian band called Triumph:bowdown:

The Cleveland Orchestra
👍 (I’m a Cleveland ex-pat myself)

I love a wide range of stuff…I’m a big prog-rock guy, but I really enjoy jazz, blues, folk, classical, etc…

A few favs…Rush, old Genesis (pre “Illegal Alien”), King’s X (and any side projects they do), Dream Theater, U2, Marillion, Led Zep, Cream, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Larry Carlton (awesome jazz guitarist), and Phil Keaggy’s first band (and sometime current side project), Glass Harp!

And Momofone, if Triumph ever gets back together for a tour, I’m there!
 
Streetlight Manifesto

Mustard Plug

RX Bandits

Sugar Ray

Dropkick Murphys

Flogging Molly

Dispatch

Reel Big Fish

I’m not sure really, I like a lot of bands.

No rap or anything, unless you count The Streets, but they’re from England and it’s not really rap.

I also like Classical and New Age music. I’m kind of a mix of a lot of stuff.
