Turn It Up: Our Festival Essentials

There is nothing better than really good music. But I can never get over how what turns us on, musically I mean, is so different for each of us. While one of my best friends gets the chills from country crooners, the lyrics just make me laugh. As for me, well, let's just say I'm eclectic. My dad worked at a classic rock and oldies station, so I know every lyric to everything from The Beatles to Abba. Meanwhile, my mom was a classical guru so at home, it was Mozart and Saint Saens all the way. In highschool my friends and I listened to Snoop and anything Top 40 but in University, my roommate was obsessed with Soundgarden and Nine Inch Nails. Imagine getting blasted out of bed by that at 8 am every day. Um, good morning? Right now I'm on a full-on Brit kick, with Rita Ora, Emili Sandé and Ben Howard on constant rotation. And while I don't 'get' country, I'll never say never b/c I can't argue that Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood do put out some pretty wicked tunes. I'm not going to link them out of principle...
