Oh boy have I dropped the ball in terms of posting what I’d hoped to this summer. Alas, while there may be no time for me to sit at my computer right now, I can give you one thing… some new summer jams. And maybe that’s all you really need!
These songs are the alt-indie-electro soundtrack to Summer of 2017. Here you’ll find perennial favorites like Phoenix, Alt-J, Spoon, LCD Soundsystem, The National, Day Wave and London Grammar. I’ve also recently discovered a few new-to-me artists like Sir Sly (Cake meets Beck?), Slowdive (an English band from the 90’s that has recently reunited) and This is the Kit (amazing indie-folk group). I’ll definitely be checking them out more. And even though it doesn’t fit into the mix, I love the new Foo Fighters single, Run. And I can’t wait to hear more of Queens of the Stone Age’s upcoming album, Villains, due at the end of August. YEAAHHHH!
Happy listening!
