I do music for a living, so when I brew I want something that doesn't remind me of work!  I tend to listen to NPR....Car Talk, Whaddya Know, Wait Wait Don't Tell Me, This American Life, Prairie Home Companion....

never one particular band

Ranges anywhere from Ween to Zappa to Captain Beefheart to Hendrix to Johnny Cash to...  just set the disc changer to random and let it work it's magic.

I always have the iPod playing while I'm brewing. I set it to shuffle and listen to my whole collection about 5000 songs. Everything from classical to hard rock. It's a part of the brewing process for me.  8)

I would have to second Dave Matthews.  Also, some John Butler Trio, maybe a little Jack Johnson or Brett Dennen.

Aargh!  You guys are reminding me of how archaic my current brew shed is!  I'm still piss-ant'ing pots, kegs and carboys around just so "I can" brew.   :P   No power in the brew shed yet.... this spring and summer things will change though.   ;)

When inside, my current "brew mix" consists of:
Clash, Manson, Eddie Vetter, vintage beer commercial snippets, Arcade Fire, Springsteen, Flaming Lips, Kansas, Floyd,  Richard Thomas, Indigo Girls, Ramones

When outside: I got the squirrel, cardinal, bluejay, crow, and other birds doing the background soundtrack.
