I just returned from a Hawaiian vacation with my family, my brother-in-law’s family and Papa…totally enviable, I know. I count myself very lucky.
One of our favorite things to do when we’re together is play DJ – creating a soundtrack for the evening as we take turns sharing tunes. So here are some of the songs / artists at the top of my picks last week :
The Vespers – The Fourth Wall : Close My Eyes; Will You Love Me
Mumford & Sons – Babel : I Will Wait & Sigh No More : White Blank Page
Frightened Rabbit – Pedestrian Verse : Acts of Man; The Woodpile
Bon Iver – Calgary : I Can’t Make You Love Me / Nick of Time above is a great video that includes this song
Damien Rice & Lisa Hannigan – Even Better Than The Real Thing : Get The Party Started
Herbie Hancock with Lisa Hannigan – Possibilities : Don’t Explain
The Lone Bellow – The Lone Bellow : You Never Need Nobody
The Lumineers – The Lumineers : Stubborn Love; Ho Hey
Ugly Duckling – Journey to Anywhere : A Little Samba
The place I like to hear new music is KCRW – Morning Becomes Eclectic with Jason Bentley and on the weekends, Ann Litt
Feel free to comment with some of your music favorites.
