NORA
Age: 26
My overall tastes: I’m stupid for Britpop, power pop, and whiny shoe gazer. The word “Anglophile” makes me wince, but I will admit that a good chunk of my music comes from across the Atlantic.
Bands I play on repeat: Ride, Stone Roses, The Smiths, Slowdive, The Clash, The Cure, Teenage Fanclub, The English Beat, Phoenix, Big Star, The Zombies
First CD: Funky Divas, En Vogue
Last five artists purchased on iTunes: Duke Ellington, The Clientele, Benoit Pioulard, The Swell Season, Peter Schilling

My overall tastes: I'm not gonna lie—I own a lot of stuff by sad-bastard singer/songwriters. Happy music is good, too—rock / alterna / indie / hip-hop / songs that tell weird stories. No girl bands, please.

First CD: August and Everything After, Counting Crows
Last five artists purchased on iTunes: The Perishers, Alexi Murdoch, Arcade Fire, Journey, Ray LaMontagne
