September! We’ve reached the ’embers! I say this every year and I have zero intention of ever quitting. This mixtape: it’s all about the drums. But don’t get worried, it’s not like, Rush drums or anything. No giant, chaotic fills. It’s the wash of drums. The feel of the beat that carries the song. Some […]
August! It’s my birthday month so you’re obligated to read this post. (jk!) (I think.) Need some later-in-the-summer tunes? Because I have them. Oh do I have them. This month there’s no real theme, just some good vibey songs that hibernate in my heart, rumble around in splendor and govern my every move. But I’m […]
Mornin’, cowboy! I’m getting you this mixtape a hair early in case you’d like to entertain your ears with something fresh this holiday weekend. Fresh but old. This is the very first country music mixtape I have ever made. Ever. Hold on hold on! Before you hurl your laptop off a cliff, you must know, […]
Almost June! We’re not going to talk about how impossible that is. We’re not. But what we will talk about today is this playlist. It’s everything I played in Rosemary Beach. And by “everything I played in Rosemary Beach” I mean in my reels and stories. All that jazz, man! I will say that at […]
We’re now entering the summer mixtape playlist songs-in-a-row-on-an-internet-platform era! And this one is exactly that. Every month I get embarrassingly excited about these mixtapes, and I hope you do, too. I always try to pick songs that make you feel something. And maybe it’s something long buried, like the way you feel when you hear […]
Okay this is the very last time I’ll do this but – yay, KU!! I had them going the ENTIRE WAY on my bracket and I feel like I’ve won an award. Do I get something? Money? A plaque? A sticker? Never mind. Your April mixtape! It’s divine. It’s upbeat without being obnoxious. It’s relaxed […]
FRRRRrrrrrrri ha-day-ya. Did you see Arkansas BEAT GONZAGA LAST NIGHT? Did you see that? They beat Gonzaga! FLOORED. It ruined my Final Four but I don’t even care because that’s amazing. Also I’ve been saying it like this the entire time: Gon-zah-ga. Like Julie Andrews I guess. And it’s Gon-ZAG (like zig zag)-ga. How is […]
March! That window is gonna be open today, babe. March is a b, though. Just when we get excited about bulbs peeking through the frigid ground, or the grass clicking (clicking?) one teeny shade greener than it was last week, or fuzzy little buds on the ends of tree limbs just begging to plump, it’ll […]
This is what we’ll look like this time tomorrow. And then some. February! Do you ever find yourself thinking, “Okay first month is done, we’re okay, let’s keep nesting” when February hits? No? Just me? Really? I’m not the type to spiral into winter depression. It’s the perfect excuse to stay home and light candles […]
Despite the name of the mix and the photo below, this is actually a pretty cheerful playlist! It’s what we need. Look at that. Look at the peachy purple-y pinky sky. Marvelous, isn’t it? Sunrises like this aren’t often, so I desperately needed to show you. So, this mix! It’s seriously a good one. I […]
