Heading into the holiday weekend so why not drop a new playlist a few days early. Hope you have some great plans this Labor Day Weekend and if you’re planning an end of summer bbq or hitting the open road, perhaps this little playlist will make it that much more enjoyable. Wishing everyone a fun and safe holiday weekend.
Peace + Love + Music
For the first Friday in August here’s a little summer playlist of songs you should be adding into your music rotation to help get you through the hot, hot heat. While I suggest checking out all the songs and artists below, don’t miss a few of the unknowns like Blue King Brown, a fantastic reggae band from Australia, the original recording of “The Seed” by Cody ChesnuTT (not The Roots) and “Some Fantasy” by D.W. Brandt which is a must and you can only find it on the 1% For The Planet album.
