Zevon
My brothers favorite band back in the naughties. He stayed with me when living in Germany for the World Cup 2006. Soundtrack of that summer along with Franz Ferdinand, The Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, Manic Street Preachers, Bloc Party et al. He went through a phase of dating what he called “Musettes”. The cover of Feeling Good by Nina Simone wasn’t bad : )
Do you know Mojo Nixon?
D’Kid saw Panic! At The Disco at Stockton in 2015 (she was almost 15)
Arctic Monkeys and The Killers were also in her playlist at that time, and Disney Channel pop was far in the rear-view (Taylor Swift had already irrevocably captured her)
These decisions were her own; Dad did NOT say “you know what you should listen to …”
Not personally, but if you don’t have Mojo Nixon, your store could use some fixin
I quite liked the Arictic Monkeys. Alex Turner was a great song writer …very witty. He made Oasis sound like Katy Perry lyrically lol.
