Life of a Blogger : Favorite Bands

Life of a Blogger is a super awesome new meme started up by Jessi over at Novel Heartbeat. When I came across her post about starting the meme, I thought it was an amazing idea. I thought it'd be a great way to share a bit more about myself outside of the bookish memes I usually do as well as a way to get insight into my fellow book blogger's lives. Plus, I kinda like talking about myself. ;) Even better, the first post is : Favorite Bands! There was no way I was gonna pass up an opportunity to talk about music. It's my life. Aside from books. And food. And coffee. So without further ado...

So...if you hadn't noticed by now: I have a thing for strong, unique vocalists with huge ranges and emotions that pour into their music. I like to feel when I hear music. Each of the Favorite Songs made me pause once (likely midsentence since I talk so much) and go: Who the HELL is that and where can I find more of their music?!
