A great way to discover new music is word-of-mouth, and we've discovered a virtual musical grapevine: Pandora. It's customized streaming radio that begins with a specific artist or song that you like, then builds a station based on the specific musical elements you enjoy. (My Hawksley Workman station features subtle use of vocal harmony, acoustic rhythm piano, acoustic sonority, extensive vamping, and vocal-centric aesthetic - not that I even know what all those things mean.) You get to skip songs you don't like and guide the evolution of the station by giving songs a thumbs-up or thumbs-down.Try it, you'll like it!
