Oh man, just 24 hours from the 2014 Life is Beautiful lineup! I cannot wait to share this year’s lineup with everyone. Each minute we get closer to releasing it the more excited I get. I hope my enthusiasm and love for the talent assembled for year two of the festival is shared by you as well after tomorrow. I hope that as you watch this video below which recaps the music portion of Life is Beautiful 2013, you get pumped to create a whole new set of beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.
“A music festival is a gathering of a lot of strangers but I must say that music by the end of the night it always makes me feel like I know everybody that I shared that experience with and there’s nothing else in the world that can do that like music.” – Dan Reynolds, Imagine Dragons at Life is Beautiful Festival

Can’t believe it’s already the end of summer? Neither can I but the good news is it doesn’t really have to end. So since I put up Summer Playlist Vol.I back in June, here are a bunch more songs and bands that have been powering me through the summer. Once again this is available via my Spotify profile so unfortunately some songs and bands have been left off (blame them, not me). Hope you enjoy and find some good tunes to really make this an endless summer!

Wow, I can’t believe I haven’t put these guys below on the blog after their album has been on repeat for me the past month plus. Without further adieu, your music for today.
Four words: Family of the Year
Who? A four-piece indie outfit from LA with ties to different parts of the country and across the pond.
What? A kickass, highly talented band throwing you a bit of indie-rock and pop, folk, island vibes and more in a way that works and will have you hand clapping and boot stomping in no time.
Why you should listen? Just play their new album, Loma Vista, and you’ll understand exactly why.
A reason you’ll be excited? If you like GROUPLOVE, you’re going to really dig these guys as they feature an array of vocals and variety of instruments to craft a fun, uplifting sound.
Why I’m excited: This band has been around since 2009 but I only recently discovered them and can’t wait to dive into earlier works but am more impressed with their most recent album which is seriously on repeat a few times a week.
If you like: GROUPLOVE, The Belle Brigade, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, The Lumineers, GIVERS.
Final thoughts: It’s just some damn good music so listen up.
