hi, hello!
It’s good to have your eyes and ears. Here’s what I’ve been listening to for the past month.
I’m only one month into this project and I’m already missing listening to new music. When I have a little extra time, I’ll play something new. So with that, I have a ~ bonus section ~ for you.
Something new to review: Big Thief, Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You. This album has everything: bluegrass, rock riffs, folk tunes, songs about birds, frogs, Adam and Eve, love, and more! Listen when you have time (after you’ve listened to twenty twenty 2, of course) for some lyrics that will make you smile:
“Everybody steps on ants. Everybody eats the plants. Everybody knows to dance even with just one finger.”
Anyway, it has been comforting to go back and listen to music that has brought me so much joy. Like how Cleo Sol is always a mood booster. Or how I always listen to Sam Cooke on Valentine’s Day. Sun June reminds me of California and so I listened to them on my flight home from San Luis Obispo. Yes, I’ve included a photo to set the mood.
