Music that Makes Me

The Music that Makes Me

Music has been an integral part of my life since before I can remember. There's very little I can enjoy doing with my time in life with out music somehow involved. So what are the songs, band, and artists that have help make me who I am today? The page will answer that question.

One of my parents fondest memories to retell are the times when I would dance until I was out of breath to Juice Newton's "Queen of Hearts." I remember having the LP and a record player at the youngest of ages and listening to that song over and over. I listened so much that I wore out the LP. My first real concert was Billy Joel. Led Zeppelin got me through my West Coast adventure.

And then there's Foo Fighters. Foo Fighters saved rock music for me and I would argue my whole generation. Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters may be the single most significant band over more of my life than any other.

Below are the songs and artists that I can go to anytime. Eventually, I may just have to build my perfect playlist and share that as well.
