Lately, I’ve noticed how many great bands are grouped together alphabetically in my iTunes library. (Before we go any further, yes, I realize this might be the byproduct of a mild psychological disorder.) That led me to a random hypothetical: If you could only listen to artists from one letter of the alphabet for one month, what letter would you choose?
Right now, I’m leaning toward “C”: Castanets, Cat Power, Centro-Matic, Cloud Cult, Coconut Records, Cold War Kids, Coldplay, Colin Meloy, Conor Oberst, Cool Kids, and Counting Crows.
That’s a pretty solid lineup in my opinion, but you could make a strong case for “D”: Damien Jurado, David Bazan, David Crowder Band, David Gray, Death Cab for Cutie, Decemberists, Derek Webb, Doug Burr, and Dr. Dog. Not bad.
Scroll through your library and let me know what you favorite letter is, and why.
