I do know he likes Iron Maiden, ZZTop, Tool, The Black Crowes, A Perfect Circle, Janes Addiction, Blind Melon, and G Love.
Sounds LikeI think I have my own sound, but I'm influenced by many artists. 70's classic rock, Bands like: The Eagles, Boston, Three Dog Night, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Skynyrd, Zappa,....Singer/Songwriters including Jim Croce, The Indigo Girls, Ani Difranco, Van Morrison, Patty Griffin, David Wilcox, Susan Tedeschi, Cat Stevens. I love Motown-Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin, The Temptations. I love The Black Crowes, The Cure, The Verve, Counting Crows, Kings Of Leon, 80's Hair Bands, (too many to name) Country music- Willie Nelson, Garth, Keith Urban,.....Can't forget "The Boss"- I love "Old" Springsteen. Bread, America.....I even like 50's tunes- great harmonies, any Spanish guitar stuff, Classical, Big Band, and of course "The King". There's too many- I could go on and on....Whatever moves me, inspires me, or just sounds "good"!

   About Coretta Sellars
Coretta Sellars stems from the small town of Lunenburg, MA, contributing her neutral sound and passionate lyrics to the musical blends of Country, Alternative, and Folk/Rock stylings. As writing has always served as a means of Sellars being able to vent and deliver her worldly messages to the masses, her signature, soulful, sound has been inspired heavily by such mainstream acts that include The Eagles, Indigo Girls and The Rolling Stones. Sellars began playing the guitar and performing in front of live audiences during her teenage years. Enveloped by music in due part to the modes of singing and instrumental sessions that always framed family gatherings, Sellars decided at the age of fifteen that creating songs and sharing them universally would be her definitive contribution to the world. Having already recorded four albums between 1996 and present day, Sellars has created a prolific catalogue of songs that have become popular and personal amongst her fellow listeners and fan base. Sellars’ first recording, Say Something, is a single that she made copies of on actual cassettes and distributed and sold to her high school classmates. Since then, Sellars has received radio airplay, via WXRV, in Boston, MA, with her smash hit, Best of Me. Her belief in unity, as well as her acceptance of life’s hardships, and respect across humanity, has aided Sellars in writing poignant lyrics that she hopes will help her fans to find closure, fill a void or soundtrack a past memory. Emotional songs that include, Sticking Around, Just Like Nothing, Lonely, and Elizabeth, are compilations that have stood as the trophy pieces of Sellars’ career. Ultimately, Sellars would love to receive global recognition for her writing skills, as well as garnering critical acclaim amongst the folk genre. Sellars pays homage, through her talents, to those who have supported her sixteen year career, and who shall continue to extract a sense of faith and hope within the confines of her music.
