The other day I was listening to Damien Jurado’s “Ohio” and I realized that I miss my home state. What better way to remember my home than compile a list of my favorite songs about Ohio? The list also had contributions from Matt, Sean and Shiloh. Hope you enjoy, and learn something about Ohio as well.
