(no subject)
I came home last night after doing some food shopping, and was so wiped out that I just wanted to lay down on my bed in the dark and listen to some music. I was thinking that I wanted to listen to something mellow or quiet, possibly folky or acoustic-guitar oriented, with a female vocalist. After perusing my CD collection, I realized that I didn't have anything like that, or at least couldn't think of it for the time being. I ended up with Mum, which was fine, but it wasn't what I had been looking for initially. In retrospect, Beth Orton kind of fits the bill, but not perfectly. I thought about Neko, but I was looking for something mellower than that. Something like Iron & Wine, but a girl. Does anyone have/know anything along those lines that they would recommend? This is definitely a hole in my music collection, and I want to fill it!
