Help me complete a mix CD

Using up my pepsi iTunes codes. Here is what I have so far (not necessarily in this order).

Mike Doughty - Move On
David Mead - Nashville
Damien Rice - Delicate
Mason Jennings - Darnkess Between the Fireflies
Crosby, Stills, & Nash - Marrakesh Express
Alexei Murdoch - Orange Sky
Kings of Leon - The Bucket
Fruit Bats - Rainbow Sign

Other songs I'm considering that I already have:
Josh Rouse - James
Diana Anaid - Last Thing
New Radicals - Crying Like A Church On Monday


So what should I add (needs to be available on iTunes)?

I haven't heard of 90 percent of those artists, what kind of music is that?

Well most of it is either rock or folk rock. The diana anaid song is pretty much straight pop. new radicals had a hit with "you get what you give" back what 5 or 6 years ago i think? the rest of that album is pretty good though. The Orange Sky song is being used in the honda element commercial where they put the stickers on it. I heard the Damien Rice song in an episode of the TV show Lost.

Basically what I'm looking for is songs that our slow to moderate tempo, probably acoustic, and that have a nice mellow feel to them. Something you'd listen to sitting on the porch in the evening.

iTunes lets you do 30 second previews of songs, so I will go and find other peoples iMixes and just try stuff out and find new artists. It's great.

It's a good song, but I'm not sure that I like it fits the flow enough to put it on. Thanks for the suggestion though, I'd be happy to listen to any others.

I've also added:
Duvall - Busy (which is a Jawbreaker cover song from the Bad Scene Everyone's Fault tribute CD).

Another way to describe this Mix CD: If you were making a soundtrack to Garden State 2 what would you put on it?
