Checked out Ivy. They are OK, I think, but didn't grab me. The Kyle Tucker Band - definitely listenable. I am not a huge fan of C&W, but this is very much in the style I like. A possibility for future buying. Thanks ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

Cool.
I figured Ivy wasn't quite your thing. But Kyle just has some great lyrics and good sound. I'm glad I stopped by their website or I wouldn't have known that they're coming out with a new CD. Though I probably won't be able to get it right away...
And I'll let you know when I get a chance to stop by the music store and whether I get either Skye or Robbie.

And for no real reason, other than for you and others to know what kinds of musicians I listen to, here are some of my favorite singers/bands that I actually own CDs of. And I haven't bought half of the CDs I want, but since I don't get to listen to music much...
Female artsits/CDs: Ivy (Guestroom) Jenai (Cool Me Down) Sarah Cracknell (Lipslide) Avril Lavigne (Let go, Under My Skin) Alanis Morisette (Jagged Little Pill, Supposed..., Under Rug Swept, So-Called Chaos) Lee Ann Womack (Greatest Hits) Madonna (Immaculate Collection, Greatest Hits vol 2) Trick Pony (Trick Pony) Paula Abdul (Forever Your Girl, Head over Heels... though I have the other album on tape) Shania Twain (UP, Come on over, The Woman in Me, Shania Twain) Jewel (Pieces of You, 0304) Natalie Merchant (Tigerlily) Sheryl Crow (The Very Best of) Flexie (Takeout, Galaxy Park)
And the few male singers/CD: Duncan SHeik (Daylight) John Mayer (Heavier Things, Room for Squares) Ricky Martin (Ricky Martin) U2 (Best of 90-00, The B-Sides) Elton John (Greates Hits, Made in England)
I don't buy a lot of male artists CDs because Will has so many of the albums I want, so I just borrow from him.
The other thing I used to collect a lot was soundtracks, both to movies and musicals. Not so much now since my movie-going days are fewer and farther between. But one of my favorite musical soundtracks is call Mamma Mia! A musical based around/on ABBA songs. Never seen the musical, but I know people who did and they said it was really good. It hasn't been recorded yet... at least not that I know of...

I think you should check out LeAnn Rimes, Silva. I think you'd like her, judging from your list. And everyone should check out Joss Stone, just for the voice ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) I can find links for both if you want them ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

You see, LeAnn Rimes is one of the artists that I've always wanted to get a CD of, but never remember when I get to the store. I know there are over dozen female artists that I like, that I've heard on the radio, but due to circumstances, haven't gotten any CDs.
*sigh* But money's tight now, no real time to listen, so no real motivation to get new music, unless it's cheap. I got Tigerlily CD for $3 as well as Pieces of You for $3. I love Dimples, but have to watch myself when I go in there.

hehe, I know. You kinda re-sparked my love for music, E. I used to live off music... But it's really not the right time... however, I will look into the few you've pointed out to me. Hopefully I can get a CD for cheap...

I think I still do live off music to a large extent, Silva ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) A world without music... I would hate to even contemplate.

Me too, E. Music has been so much a part of my life... from the early Disney movies, to musicals to what's playing on the radio.
I grew up on music from the 60's - Oldies. I know so many words to so many songs...
Also some country, but not much...
Then my older siblings got me hooked on 80's music even though I was born in 1980.
And then I lived through the pop of the 90's.
... and now I look back and love it all... for the most part. ^_^
Oh, and how could I forget theatre and the wonderfulw orlds of musicals! I loved watching and working in theatre.

...Tried Carina Round. She's not bad, but not really my thing. Thanks though, Aria ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Jang - not a fan of Beth Orton ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
