1. BECK - DREAMS
I'm still enjoying Beck's Grammy award-winning album from last year. And here he is back with a new awesome single. Dreams is already getting a lot of airplay. Maybe a late contender for song of the summer?
2. Alessia Cara - Here
I love a dance song about not enjoying the party and preferring to go back to your home. I hear you girl.
3. The Chemical Brothers - Wide Open
Hey look the Chemical Brothers made something new! And Beck sings on it. Hi again beck.
4. Leon Bridges - Coming Home
We talked about Leon last week after seeing him at Outside Lands, but this was his first single and the song that turned me onto Leon so I had to put it somewhere.
5. Jill Scott - Closure
I am loving the Jill Scott has put out a new record. Her fifth and first since 2011. I don’t think this is even the single I just like everything I’ve heard from it.
6. Modest Mouse - The Ground Walks with Time in a Box
Another band that had not put out a record in a while, Modest Mouse returned after eight years to release Strangers to Ourselves in March. Their first single, Lampshades on Fire, and so is this one.
7. Snoop Dog - Peaches n’ Cream
“Dancing likes she knows she the baddest in the place.” The most danceable song from Snoop’s Bush record that dropped earlier this year. I like when Snoop raps happy.
8. Chet Faker - Gold
This was also on the Outside Lands post. I’m still listening to it though. It’s great easy summer time music.
9. Wilco - Taste The Ceiling
My fav from Wilco’s new record. Which might still be free on their website.
10. Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash - Girl from the North Country
I had to put at least one older song on here, and you can never go wrong with Bob or Johnny.
And they do this one together!
