Sufjan Stevens is an amazing Michigan native artist. I absolutely recommend listening to his other albums as well.

Chicago is probably one of my favorites from the album Illinois.

King Park - La Dispute

This song speaks of an area a matter of miles away from my current residence. It is an incredibly depressing look at what can, and does, happen in large cities. As a disclaimer, this band might not be to everyone's taste. They're post-hardcore and many of my friends find his voice annoying.

Typically I can't fall asleep with anything other than white noise. I usually turn on my fan to drown out the noise of the city.

MSU was my first choice for undergrad, but I decided to go with GVSU. I grew up near Petoskey, MI and am now living in downtown Grand Rapids.
