Juntos by Juanes
We start things off with a fun song from Juanes that has a great beat and groove to it with some soulful vocals.
Fade Out Lines by The Avener
A great calm dance song with a really chill vibe.
I Am the Fool by The Bros. Landreth
I really really love this song. I am a sucker for the blues anyways but this is a tight song with some nice harmonies during the refrain. I'll be seeing if these guys are coming to LA this year!
I Don't Want to Let You Down by Sharon Van Etten
A chill and soulful song with rich guitars.
Leaf Off / The Cave by José González
A total atmospheric song that wouldn't be out of place in a 60's drum circle with some gorgeous harmonies.
Los Angeles by Mat Kearney
A wonderful blend of folk and hip hop with amazing lyrics. My wife has loved Los Angeles since she was little and the fact that we packed our beer can of a car to make our life out here makes these lyrics resonate deeply.
No Cities To Love by Sleater-Kinney
Some great old school punk sound on this track. I love the bass riff on this and it will be some time until I am skilled enough to take it on.
Parasite by Armors
Slow, driving, anthemic rock.
Sunburns by Fences
Jocular, playful rhythms that make great use of contrast between the mellow versus and a raucous refrain.
Voodoo Doll by Diamond Rugs
A really fun stripped down song that reminds me of B-52s "Rock Lobster" stylistically.
Blame It On Me and Barcelona by George Ezra
I really enjoy George Ezra and am excited for some more tunes from him. Budapest was addictive and now there are these two great but different songs. Blame It On Me is a lot more up tempo and is the kind of song I would love to hear in a pub with everyone stomping their feet. Barcelona, in contrast, is a beautiful melodic tune.
