Playlist: What's Emily Kinney listening to?


Since her Beth Greene character met a grisly end on The Walking DeadEmily Kinney has focused on her music career while also appearing on shows like Masters of Sex and The Flash. The singer-songwriter released her This Is War album in October and will begin a tour Nov. 16 at New Orleans' Civic Theatre. Before setting out on the road, she took a moment to share some of her favorite recent tunes with Paste BN readers.

My Wrecking Ball , Ryan Adams

Ryan's last album was with me during a week I was by myself in Vancouver. I'm in love with his voice. It calms me down.

Shame , Cariad Harmon

For me, this song describes a feeling of trying to make it in life somehow and just being at the end of your rope.

The Last Unicorn , Passenger

This song so perfectly describes the feeling of being with someone physically and still feeling so incredibly alone.

Hands to Myself , Selena Gomez

The list's guilty pleasure. I'll listen a few times in a row just because it's so cute. I can't help myself. I love it.

The Fool , Ethan Johns

I really love his songs and their simple, beautiful poetry. This is my favorite from his last album, The Reckoning.

Wishing It Was You , K. Flay

I'm pretty obsessed with K. Flay right now. This song is dirty, and I like it.

Lazy Eye , Hem

On a long Christmas flight, I drifted in and out of sleep listening to Rabbit Songs all the way to Colorado Springs.

Behave , Frightened Rabbit

I think the people in this band might be a lot like me somehow. But I could be wrong. I could just be a crazy fangirl.

Bad Moon Rising , Creedence Clearwater Revival

One of my dad's favorite songs, this makes me think of driving around with him in his pickup truck.

Golden , Wakey!Wakey!

I was so into that Almost Everything ... album in 2010. This is a newer song that makes me really happy.
