Music Monday || 5-25-2015

     For this weeks Music Monday I decided to go for a more relaxed playlist.  If you need to unwind from a long Memorial Day weekend, or need to study for your new job at Starbucks (like me) this is a great playlist for you. I decided to pick tracks from artists that are traditionally mellow, such as, The Civil Wars, Ben Howard, and City & Colour. While I also decided to add songs from artists that are traditionally upbeat that showcase their softer side. Foster The People's "Fire Escape" focuses on life in LA and is a change from their melodic indie rock vibe. While some people may consider Lana Del Rey a soft artist, I believe "Yayo" strays from her usual 60's retro sound and provides more of a orchestral atmosphere. With that being said, plug in your favorite headphones or the AUX and enjoy.
Until Next Time...
