Valerie has always enjoyed discovering new music and sharing her awesome finds with others. She's especially fond of alternative, pop, indie, folk and singer-songwriter genres, but also has a soft spot for the old storyteller country music her parents played while she was young. A good chord progression makes her weak in the knees; prime examples being the opening notes of John Mayer's "Slow Dancing in Burning Room" and 2:22 to 2:46 of Foy Vance's "You and I". Her all-time faves include: Crowded House, Keane, The Housemartins, Ron Sexsmith and Travis. Newer faves include: Boy & Bear, Josh Pyke and Bastille.
