Music to Your Ears

A Springtime Playlist

It might finally be spring. Defrost with some tunes that have us looking to sunnier times ahead.

“Summertime Clothes,” by Animal Collective
(As delightfully refreshing as the season’s first wooder ice.)

“Heads Will Roll,” by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
(If ever there were a more convincing call to the dance floor, we’re hard pressed to find it.)

“Lay It Down,” by Peter Bjorn and John
(Not mom-and-pop-friendly but perhaps the most singable, infectious song of the year.)

“Woof Woof,” by Dan Deacon
(A versatile and incredibly strange offering from our neighbor to the south.)

“And the Hazy Sea,” by Cymbals Eat Guitars
(Sets the mood for any road trip.)

“Seven,” by Fever Ray
(For those wet days with nothing to offer but rain, leftovers, and a good book.)

“Deep Blue Sea,” by Grizzly Bear
(If you have a soul, you will like.)

“Daniel,” by Bat for Lashes
(For whatever nocturnal activities you stumble into this summer.)

“Young Adult Friction,” by The Pains of Being Pure at Heart
(Smiths references be damned.)

“Fitz and the Dizzyspells,” by Andrew Bird
(For the end of a long, perfect springtime day.)
