As of late, I've had the privilege to contribute to You, Me, and Charlie, Dianna Agron's online arts and inspiration playground. If you haven't already, mosey on over there - daily goodies carefully curated to spark, impress and amuse! Today's post was dedicated to Montreal-based musical dreamweaver Grimes, who is one part Lykke Li, one part Cults, one part underground DJ and all parts delightful. (You can read the full entry here if you'd like...)
Writing about Grimes brought something to my attention: it has been ages since I've said a word about my most recent music crushes on my own blog, which defeats the whole "beats" portion of my moniker. Therefore, without further ado, I bring you a collection of jams for your Monday Blues. All the artists and songs I've been swooning over as of late in a nice, neat ongoing Spotify stream. (!!!)

The Civil Wars album Barton Hollow. On repeat. Rediscovered Jewel, no idea how I 'forgot' about her. A lot of country, mostly because I miss home; namely George Strait's "How 'Bout Them Cowgirls".
ReplyDeleteYes! Just got into Civil Wars. Thanks for the recommendation! And I LOVE Jewel..all those 90s Lilith Fair girls are my jam: Alanis, Fiona, Jewel. (I think I just recited a line from 'How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days' but whatever...) And don't get me started on country. I don't understand how it took me so long to get into it :)
