Si ~ {Music Recommendation} Sufjan Stevens.
Meet Sufjan Stevens. I'm a little obsessed with his music. I'll admit I enjoy his style so much I listen to his Christmas album year round. Yikes. I am a fan of any acoustic style of music and folky sounds, but what really pulls me in is great lyrics haunting melodies and an interesting mixture instruments. Sufjan and his band combines the banjo, piano, guitar, strings, percussion, and horns to make a very unique symphonic sound. He can go from cheerful to dark, fast to slow and weepy in the blink of an eye So I admit because I pretty much never stop listening to him, my recommendation to listen to his music is about as good as asking a groupie, what they think. Duh.
So yeah, check him out. You either love him or you hate him. So don't hate me if you don't love him. Kimberly can sympathize with you. ;) I just needed to vent some of my obsession.

2.Sufjan Stevens - {Concerning the UFO Sighting Near Highland, Illinois}
3.Sufjan Stevens - {Redford (For Yia-Yia and Pappou}
You should probably listen to a few clips on itunes to hear some of his more symphonic pieces that dominate his style before an entire album. I just really like the above samples. But if you just want to buy and album I recommend Michigan, Illinois, Songs for Christmas, or Seven Swans. Enjoy.
