Mixtape — every day my playlist is shufflin’

Sometimes I’m not in the mood for any particular genre of music. These are the days I just want to sit down and hear some kickin’ music. It doesn’t matter the genre, artist, time period or anything else. Here is what I’m listening to these days. There’s no rhyme, reason or theme, I just like it.

“Ho Hey” by The Lumineers

This song is upbeat, catchy and I just can’t stop listening to it. Check it out ASAP.

“Silhouettes” by Avicii

Avicii makes me want to put on my dancey pants and stay up all night. Give it a listen if you’re in need of a fist-pumping, disco-style good time.

“1904” by The Tallest Man On Earth

Makes me want to time-travel to the year 1904. Can I please? TMOE has a sweet twang but still manages to hit that Indie soft spot.

“We Will All Be Changed” by Seryn

As the summer draws to a close there’s something about this song that just seems so right. “We can shape but can’t control these possibilities to grow.”

“Little Talks” by Of Monsters And Men

One of the best duets of the last five years, bar none. It’s sultry, catchy and everything in between. Listen to it, love it, share it. And go.

“Rivers and Roads” by The Head and the Heart

Beautiful harmonies, beautiful lyrics, breathtaking chorus and a great instrumental backdrop. What more could you ask for?

“Happy Pills” by Norah Jones

Norah Jones has her sassy pants on these days and it’s led to some incredible tracks. As always, Jones has one of the purest voices of all time.

The Horse Thieves

My favorite band of the year hails from Spokane. Give them a listen and you won’t regret it.

“Ghosts” by Laura Marling

The first time I heard this song it was the track for a group ballet video I found on YouTube. It was one of those wonderful accidental discoveries that I am now thrilled to pass on.

“Greenback Boogie” by Ima Robot

This is the theme song to one of my current favorite TV shows. If you haven’t watched Suits yet, you should. You should also listen to this song.
