Songs For Your Summer Playlist

You might not be ready to move on from Taylor Swift yet, but if you are, here are five songs that I’m really enjoying on my summer playlist.

Letting Go – Angie McMahon

This song has been stuck in my head for days largely in part to its driving rhythm and meaningful lyrics.

Somebody Told Me – Sorcha Richardson

I adore Sorcha Richardson, and – unsurprisingly – this killer cover of The Killers, which completely reimagines the song.

Wet – Claud

Claud is a consistent part of my summer soundtrack, and this track off their new album is one I’ve spent a lot of time running around to.

The Woods – Hollow Coves (The Kite String Tangle Remix)

I can already see the future slideshow I will set to this song, that takes Hollow Coves’ indie-acoustic vibe and turns it into an ambient bop.

King of Disappointment – Jem Cassar-Daley

I can thank Triple J for surfacing this single from Australia’s Jem Cassar-Daley, who reminds me of the sound of Sarah Bareilles (although, maybe that’s because of her similarly named “King of Anything” single.)
