Sixpence None the Richer		Albums: Sixpence None the Richer Fave songs: There She Goes, Love, Kiss Me, I Can't Catch You, Us (single) The Deal: Leigh Nash has a terrific voice and they create good, solid songs that really get to me. Also excellent live.

With Fleming's really unique voice, F&J make some of the most unique and interesting songs I know. Exciting to see them live.

Fave songs: Here and Now, Jennifer, Awake, He's Got an Answer, Beacause of You, Anchor The Deal: Fronted by my hero Kay Hanley, Letters to Cleo has a great and unique sound and manage to have a rockin' female lead singer who stands out from the pack.

Polk, and so many more The Deal: Super quirky. Fantastic duo with songs that will for the most part never reach the radio, but are more fun and smart than a lot of what does. They contribute a lot of music to "Malcolm in the Middle," including the theme song. Sadly, I live in California and they rarely get much west of the Mississippi, so I've only seen them "live" on talk shows.
