Okay. I like a lot of music. Like a lot. Let’s break this up into genres. I listen to A LOT more, but these are my favorites–the ones that I either have dug deep into or plan on doing so in the near future.

In no particular order:

Alt/Indie:
The Shins
Matt Nathanson
The Postal Service
The Format
Vampire Weekend
The Apples in stereo
Imagine Dragons
Ed Sheeran

Punk and Ska:
Titus Andronicus
The Gaslight Anthem
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Streetlight Manifesto
Less Than Jake
Dropkick Murphys
Reel Big Fish

Folk-Rock:
Mumford & Sons
The Pogues
Bon Iver
Of Monsters and Men

As for older music, who doesn’t love the Beatles? I also love 60’s sunshine pop and psych, but I typically listen to those on vinyl exclusively. I also love power pop and new-wave, but anything from before 1990 I prefer to listen to on vinyl.

I also really like soundtracks and musicals. My favorite musicals are probably Assassins, The Book of Mormon, Chess, and Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson.
