Kitness

You will hear from the genres that have a place in my heart; folk, hip hop, punk, rock n roll, and soul. I will swirl in anything new that catches my attention. I love a good soundtrack/compilation. I am finding lots of artists from my teen years that I forgot about in our expansive WYCE music library, so there will definitely be songs from the 90s popping up!
