What I'm Listening To, Volume 8
I truly can't believe it's (almost) June. On the one hand, I'm excited about all the new music June is bringing (Hello, new Father John Misty!) but on the other hand, I'm incredibly bummed. Mainly because I feel like much of my time is being wasted by situations out of my control. It doesn't matter what I try that feeling just doesn't go away. Rather than keep harping on it, I'll get to the point of this post: my current playlist. Ultimately I try to make playlists sparingly. The more you make, the more mediocre they become sometimes. I know that is a bold statement considering my mission to create a monthly themed mix for this blog. Somehow at the end of the month, I've begun sharing What I'm Listening To right now. So here's the next installment. This installment is brought to you by my SiriusXM subscription which has a wonderful indie music channel that has introduced me to some gems I hadn't heard of before but really have grown to love. There are some other gems in there that I've stumbled upon recently as well.
It's heavy on the indie fare again this month, but I just love some of these songs so much. I can't wait to feature some of them on the official summer mix. It's a little longer than usual, but it was just so hard to choose what to include. Meh, whatever.
