Michigan!

If you haven't heard this guy yet, and if you live in Michigan - well you should just be ashamed of yourself. He wrote his first album devoted specifically to this state - I mean it's called Michiagn but seen as "Greetings from Michigan - The Great Lakes State on the album." He is a bit eclectic musically, but the more you listen the more you love.
Here's the track listings on this superb album:

1. "Flint (For the Unemployed and Underpaid)" - 3:44
2. "All Good Naysayers, Speak Up! Or Forever Hold Your Peace!" - 4:33
3. "For the Widows in Paradise, For the Fatherless in Ypsilanti" - 3:57
4. "Say Yes! to M!ch!gan!" - 2:46
   • (The track title refers to a Michigan tourism slogan from the 1980s)
5. "The Upper Peninsula" - 3:23
6. "Tahquamenon Falls" - 2:18
7. "Holland" - 3:26
8. "Detroit, Lift Up Your Weary Head! (Rebuild! Restore! Reconsider!)" - 8:20
9. "Romulus" - 4:41
10. "Alanson, Crooked River" - 1:18
11. "Sleeping Bear, Sault Saint Marie" - 2:52
12. "They Also Mourn Who Do Not Wear Black (For the Homeless in Muskegon)" - 6:21
13. "Oh God, Where Are You Now? (In Pickerel Lake? Pigeon? Marquette? Mackinaw?)" - 9:23
14. "Redford (For Yia-Yia & Pappou)" - 2:02
15. "Vito's Ordination Song" - 7:07

For those of you of the Illinois persuasion - his second album (of 50) in the states concept albums had the words "Come on Feel the Illinoise" on the cover for his album dedicated to the land of Lincoln. A highly enjoyable experience as well - I would describe his music as hilarious / brilliant.
