Every band and every song I've ever heard. But mostly, Neil Young, James Taylor, CSN, Sheryl Crow, Jewel, Billy Whiteacre, The Beatles, Sarah Vaughn, Billie Holiday, Bonnie Raitt, Gordon Sumner, REM, Nirvana, and Pink Floyd (I know my music sounds nothing like theirs, but whenever I hear them I get inspired). Also Modest Mouse, Death Cab for Cutie and Bright Eyes. Oh, and Simon and Garfunkel, Coldplay, Darci Cash, Sparklehorse, The Absentee, Joni Mitchell, Elton John, The Hanks, Canon, Fiona Apple, Janis Joplin, The Shins, Damien Rice and Elliott Smith. I guess I could go on forever. :)
Sounds Like
What I’ve been told: Rilo Kiley, Neil Young, James Taylor, Fiona Apple, Elliott Smith, Sheryl Crow, Jewel, KT Tunstall, Bright Eyes, Norah Jones, John Mayer, Regina Spektor, Joni Mitchell,

Chelsea Williams
Singer / Songwriter / Guitarist / Street Musician
Chelsea currently makes her living playing on the street for tips and selling a home-made CD. She's sold over 40,000 copies, one CD at a time on her own on the street.
Chelsea has been writing and performing her own music since she was very young. After a couple of years in two different working bands, she took the stage on her own at the age of 17, performing at clubs and coffee shops and has been going strong ever since.
Chelsea's guitar and vocal chops are seemingly always in the pocket and in shape. If you're walking down the Promenade in Santa Monica and suddenly you hear a voice in the distance that draws you in over all the other music and noise, most likely that's Chelsea.
Her magnetic presence draws you in and her songs set the hook. This you gotta see!
