Went Running with Utah Girls
Yes, outside of the GD, I'll listen to almost anything. I need to run, it's my only significant exercise... and I HATE running so music helps that along every time. But I need a beat and I need beat progression from one three to five minute song to the next... or beat digression to slow me down over a stretch. Live GD just can't do that for me. Typical studio albums can. Songs like that are something for me to focus on and it helps me achieve 25 to 30 minutes of straight running. When I feel like quitting I can focus on the beat and step in time. I'm not picky about what the music is so long as it helps me. Sometimes what I pick, because I'm trying it out, sucks monkey butt. Occasionally I set up a Play List with an album I really love. Since my selections are soooo varied, usually it's something like today, something I'm just fine with but with a few really good songs that really help me along.

This is the second studio album from this mostly country trio from outside of Salt Lake City, Utah. I say mostly country because, well, they are based out of Nashville and they are considered country, but sometimes their sound strays to pop-ish. This isn't my favorite music on Earth but for running it really gets me going. Their writing isn't bad, either. Definitely not for everyone and I think once this is back on my shelf, it'll stay there for a few years before I give it a spin again. While I dig some of the tunes on here a whole lot, I prefer country that's closer to more traditional and this ain't that. But it is always nice to listen to a trio of beautiful female voices!
