Every generation has its own soundtrack. The Silent Generation (people born in the '20s and '30s) had big band and swing. Baby Boomers (born in the '40s and '50s) had rock and soul. Generation X (born in the '60s and '70s) had grunge and hip-hop. On this edition of All Songs Considered, we look back at the defining music of those generations and ask what the soundtrack is for the current generation, Generation Y (or Millennials).

Nickel Creek in concert. With host Bob Boilen. Though Nickel Creek's sound remains rooted in bluegrass, it's become more explosive and unpredictable, incorporating elements of rock and pop while remaining entirely acoustic. Hear the progressive acoustic trio in one of their final performances together from Washington, D.C.'s 9:30 Club originally webcast on NPR.org November 2, 2007.

Okkervil River in concert. With host Bob Boilen. Propelled by the cryptic songwriting of frontman Will Sheff, Okkervil River makes dark, literate rock that's as explosive as it is intimate.

Radio Without Borders #101:October 17, 2007Okkervil River, Billy Joe Shaver, Drew Smith, The Quebe Sisters & Caroline Herring Okkervil River "Our Life Is Not A Movie, Or Maybe?" Will Sheff of Okkervil River is known for the raw, emotional intensity of his songwriting. The tone can be very dark, and very serious. However, for Okkervil River's 2007 release, The Stage Names, he took a slightly different approach. Billy Joe Shaver "Get Thee Behind Me Satan" Country music legend Billy Joe Shaver's music has been recorded and revered over the years by several famous artists. But this genteel, humble gentleman takes it all in stride. Drew Smith "Follow Me Down " Singer-songwriter Drew Smith draws on any number of influences for his melodies, but there's one driving element that always plays an important role: His love of classic R&B. The Quebe Sisters "Every Whic...

The person who actually buys the tickets will log into a page where they will be able to email out voting forms to each person in their apartment. b] Each person then needs to use that form to submit their top ten bands. c] Each week, the received votes will be tallied and listed on www.atpfestival.com in order of popularity. ATP will then start asking bands from the top of the list, down. Please note that this means the earlier you vote the more your vote will mean…. Some things to keep in mind a] The resort has a capacity of less than 6000. Please bear this in mind when making your choices. You can ask for someone like Bob Dylan or The Rolling Stones but they will inevitably be considerably more expensive than the whole line-up put together, thus wasting one of your choices. b] We are unable to raise the dead. c] Just because a band is at the top of the list does not mean they will play. They have to be available and have to want to do it. If you put a band that is taking a hiatus or has broken up several years ago, please consider that you might be wasting a vote. You might not be, so you are welcome to take a chance, but an artist has to want to d] You cannot vote for the same band twice. e] You cannot vote twice. f] If you are the one that has bought the apartment and you feel you have a right to then take all the votes, please bear in mind you will have to share your weekend with people who did not get a chance to vote because of you. g] Any attempt to manipulate the voting system will be taken very seriously by ATP and could lead to your votes being disqualified. Play fair. Choose wisely.
