If I have the choice, I always prefer acoustic or live versions of songs. I like the pure, raw voices and instrumentation.

In my opinion, one of the better bands performing right now is OneRepublic. Lead singer, musician, songwriter and producer Ryan Tedder also calls Colorado home. He’s currently one of the most successful producers on the music scene. He just shared the stage with Adele at the Grammys when she won one of her many awards, he added another Grammy to his growing collection. Name some of the more successful recording artists working today and Ryan has likely worked with them.

Thankfully, he is still focused on OneRepublic. Find them on Facebook. I’m hoping to take in a concert at my favorite venue, Red Rocks. I feel so lucky to have that natural, outdoor concert hall a short drive from my home.

Here’s my entry in this week’s Tuesday Tunes:
