Angus & Julia Stone – “Big Jet Plane” (ACOUSTIC FOLK, BLUES – an Australian brother-sister duo from Sydney. Enchanting.)
Audrey Assad – “Blessed Are the Ones” (ALTERNATIVE CCM – not that I like to use the term CCM–Contemporary Christian Music–but I’m not sure what genre Audrey Assad fits into. Let’s just say it’s a new genre called AWESOME.)
Ben Abraham – “Speak” (SINGER SONGWRITER – Ben’s is the kind of music that sings its way into your head, sticks around for a while, and then begins the graceful journey into your heart.)
Ella Fitzgerald – “Hey Jude” (JAZZ – Ella Fitzgerald covers a Beatle tune splendidly! Check it out.)
Eric Whitacre Virtual Choir 2.0 – “Sleep” (CONTEMPORARY CHORAL – do you know what 2,000 voices from 58 different countries sound like? Eric Whitacre does. Breathtaking.)

Freelance Whales – “Generator 1st Floor” (INDIE ROCK – This is raw…showcasing the pure joy of making music with others. Love it!)
Graham Colton – “Start Something” (POP ROCK – Hailing from Oklahoma City, Graham Colton has toured with a number of well-known artists including John Mayer, Maroon 5, Dave Matthews Band and Kelly Clarkson. I like his acoustic stuff like this one best.)
Jenn Johnson – “Come to Me” (WORSHIP – Jenn Johnson sings with the Bethel Live band based in Redding, California. This song is a call to come back home to our Heavenly Father. So powerful!)
Katie Herzig – “Lost and Found”
