I think at this point it's pretty much impossible for me to choose a favorite artist, do to the fact that my list of music taste can extend so very much. I must mention I like many different genres, for instance: Country, Rock 'n' Roll, Hip Hop, R 'n' B, Blues, Opera, Folk, Jazz, etc. I am completely versatile in this matter. As a child I grew up with a dad who was a DJ and almost everyday he would come home from work to mix it up a little; mostly some good old school music. So I guess you can see why and where I got such a variety of music reference, but I must say my favorite has to be Rock.
As you all know, Rock has a long list of sub-genres within it's own category. So I'll explain some of my favorites. I can sincerely say I like almost every type of rock. I can go as far back to the 1940's when you'd only hear Doo Wop's and then came the rockabily ages with artists like Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash. With the British Invasion in the 60's Rock 'n' Roll ends, leaving us with a new POP and Rock beginning, Of course bands such as The Beatles, The Who and the Rolling Stones appeared on the radios through out the world. As the years go by, psychedelic tones started to get more popular eventually evolving into Acid Rock with groups like The Doors, Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix, Cream, and Black Sabbath. After that we see the Hard/ Heavy Metal Rockers like AC/DC, Iron Maiden or Alice Cooper through out the 80's and then the Punk, Grunge, Garage, Ska bands arrive indulging us through the out the 90's. I remember growing up listening to all the good stuff, as I like to say, thanks to Dad. :D
Anyway, there might be days when I'd listen to something rather mellow like Angus and Julia Stone or Paolo Nutini. Some smooth Alternative/ Grunge Nirvana or maybe go deeper with Hard Rock. At times even some Heavy Metal, Screamo (some is actually to extreme for my ears to handle so this may ), Electro Rock, Funk, Indie or Alternative Metal, for instance Chevelle. It all depends on my mood. Every Rock concert I go to gives me chills; so many emotions at once just makes me feel empowering and free to do whatever I want whenever I please it. It's such a great feeling!
So know that you've learned what music I like, you know it will be a hard decision for me to make. When I'm given the task to mention a favorite band there will always be countless amounts from which I could choose, but if I were to pick one I really admire from this era, it would probably have to be 30 Seconds to Mars. They fit a couple of rock sub-genres and always put a great show.
