songs on REPEAT.

just got back from san diego, and to be honest i don't really mind the 80 mile drive home. mainly because i am my only audience when it comes to music. and the sun setting over the ocean to my left doesn't suck either.

here are some songs i currently have on repeat.

Robyn - Fembot
The Radio Dept. - Heaven's On Fire
The Radio Dept. - Never Follow Suit
Gyptian - Hold Yuh
Fruit Bats - When U Love Somebody
Drake - Karaoke
Delta Spirit - White Table
Florence + The Machine - Dog Days Are Over
Delorean - Big Weekend
Sia - Cloud
Dr. Dog - I Only Wear Blue

bang BANG pop POP.

i like sparklers.

JACK johnson.

one thing i love about jack's music is that it's simple. and the one thing i don't like about going to his shows is that they are usually sold out, with 30,000 people, which is not simple...gives me anxiety. everything about the Santa Monica pier show last monday was simple. Instead of having to pick up trash for 2hrs like 2,000 of the people there, I just had to enter a twitter contest and win. we even showed up 10 min before the show and were still only 20ft away from the stage. i got to enjoy a little over an hour of music on top of the pacific ocean with a few of my close friends. (pure bliss)

jack released his fifth studio album today, but of course I got it early because I'm baller like that. I've probably listened to it 20 times already, with one specific song in particular that I've played more than the others. a little 58 second gem called "When I Look Up". it starts with the sound of rain, then acoustic guitar, then jack, then some female background harmonies, then rain, then it's done. almost too soon. other highlights include "My Little Girl", "No Good with Faces", "Pictures of People Taking Pictures" and "Anything But the Truth".

JUNE is almost here!

For some reason, a lot of my favorite bands/artists are releasing new albums in June. Coincidence? I think not. I'm sure they got together and decided to make me happiest slash brokest music lover everr. Anyways...here's my list of the albums I will be paying $$ for next month.

my wallet is a little empty at the moment (multiply the above concerts by $50, and add an arm and leg for coachella), but the summer is my oyster :)

something to JAM to.

Yes I'll admit it, I sing in my car. And no, I don't care if people laugh me. I'll even dance a little too. This song is kind of a throw back that I liked on the radio at the time but for some reason never fully got into it.

This jam will be helping me on my drive to Northridge today, consider yourself lucky if you catch me rockin' out in my car :)
