In high school I went through this extemely emo phase listening to alternative bands such as mae, dashboard confessionals, the used, the format, the get up kids and the list goes on and on. As we grow our taste may change but the foundation is still there. Sufjan Stevens in my opinion is a great transition from my then to now.
+++Sufjan Stevens- Detroit, Michigan singer/songwritter+++
Sufjan grew up in Detroit Michigan. Probably one of the other best things that came out from the state besides the Celtics. I am sure you have all heard his music before. A lot of his tracks were on "The Little Miss Sunshine" soundtrack.
Props to this artist for writing all of his own materials and performing all of his music live. He get the authentic kt artist stamp of approval. Lets face it artist these day should be ashamed for calling themselves artists because really hardly any of them create anything.
Ironically, the song I choose for Sufjan that I wanted to share is a cover. It was originally recorded by "Innocence Mission" Both versions are excellent. I would recommend you get both. Personally for me I feel like this song captures those moments in your life when your ready for something better and new. In his moment of flux it sounds like he's ready for strength in the new spring. enjoy.
