A Taste:

Adele, Amy Winehouse, Beyonce, Notorious B.I.G., Jason Mraz

There are two personalities to every great artist.

The first is that of the introspective and thoughtful artisan, crafting songs alone and truly conveying feelings. Then there’s the charismatic, outspoken performer—delivering said songs every night on stage for the world to hear.

Colbie Caillat’s iPod reflects that sentiment.

She laughs, “I have an upbeat playlist, and then I have a chill-out playlist. However, some songs are on both mixes because the have the same vibe!”

Colbie sat down with ARTISTdirect.com editor and Dolor author Rick Florino for this exclusive interview about what’s currently rocking her world.

She filled ARTISTdirect.com in on the songs that currently make up both of her playlists. Check out Colbie’s selections below!
