Someone out there, suggest some mellow grooving music to me. I'm open to any genre & hungry for exposure to new things.

A few people on here have turned me on to Feist, who's sorta pop and sorta jazzy. She's not quite as Starbuck-yuppie as, say, Norah Jones...there's more edge to her, more trip-hop.

I also just downloaded a singer named Imogen Heap, who is also a bit trip-hoppy - along the continuum of Sarah Maclachlan, Kate Bush, Portishead.

For guys I would suggest Josh Rouse, he's a singer/songwriter but not too oh-woe-is-me. He has "1972", which has a few fun songs on it written in the vein of early 70's, Carole King style pop, and "Nashville" which is a really good, solid, mellow CD.

I love Imogen Heap, I got to play pool with her at her opening CD party in Chicago, I think it was at the Green Dolphin. She was so funny....

You could always give Machinae Supremacy a spin ...

Semisonic (known for their one-hit-wonder "Closing Time") has some pretty good laid back stuff, though my favorite by far is called "Gone to the Movies"

Death Cab For Cutie's "Passenger Seat" and "Title and Registration" are also pretty laid back.

My #1 is definitely Styrofoam's "Couches in Alleys."
