Music recs: Relient K, Rob Thomas, Roger Whittaker
Relient K: intentionally-misspelled alt-rock/pop-punk. Started off doing more novelty songs with lots of pop-culture references, slowly trended more serious over the years. Another of those Christian bands who write great nonspecific hurt/comfort anthems -- and the overtly-religious songs include a fun Christmas album and some Narnia filk. It also means their silly songs include a VeggieTales movie theme. (Relient K playlist.)

Serious:
Rob Thomas: lead singer of Matchbox 20 taking breaks to work as a solo artist, doing pop-rock with heartfelt emotions and a mainstream-friendly patina of grunge. (Rob Thomas playlist.)
Roger Whittaker: baritone pop-folk ballads and somber anti-war songs. Released from the '60s through the '90s, but somehow they always give me the vibe of "amazingly high-fi recordings of '40s hits." (Roger Whittaker playlist.)
