To celebrate reaching 15,000 words, I decided to list a sampling of my NaNo playlist for you all. My full playlist actually includes a lot more Nine Inch Nails, Over the Rhine, and Emilie Autumn, but this is a good overview. Karin Bergquist of Over the Rhine is a good example of Sal Porter’s voice. Martyn Joseph and the Waterboys are a good example of Gideon Verity’s music. Trouble With Monday is the band of a friend of mine, Lee Anna Atwell, and she wrote and performed the song “Fiction”. “Edmund Fitzgerald ’97” is, of course, a remake of Gordon Lightfoot’s classic ballad “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald”.
