🎵 Song of the week for my daughter — Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right by Bob Dylan from The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan. We had to get to Dylan eventually. Hard to pick one song

🎵 Song of the week for my daughter — Deer Creek Canyon by Sera Cahoone from Deer Creek Canyon. A good song about nostalgia for where you’re from.
🎵 Song of the week for my daughter — Salesmen, Cheats and Liars by Lowest of the Low from Shakespeare My Butt…. Great Canadian indie rock
🎶🚴 Cheap Beer by FIDLAR got me through a tough interval on the bike this morning
🎵 Match Head Girl by Iceage is some good pick-me-up punk rock. The whole album keeps up the energy
🎵 Song of the week for my daughter — The Night Starts Here by Stars from In Our Bedroom After the War. The two singers work well together
🎵 Song of the week for my daughter — Lovers In A Dangerous Time by Bruce Cockburn from Stealing Fire (Deluxe Edition). “Got to kick at the darkness till it bleeds daylight” is a great line
🎵 Song of the week for my daughter — Feather, Fur & Fin by Danny Michel from Feather, Fur & Fin. A conservation biologist’s theme song with a fun horn section
🎶 After hearing my son and nephew rehearsing Is What It Is by Chance Peña, I’ve been a bit obsessed with it. They were practicing for an upcoming campfire concert at their summer camp, where there was recently a tragedy. Watching the campers comfort each other through the tragedy seemed resonant with the song’s lyrics
🎵 Song of the week for my daughter — Midnight Rider by The Allman Brothers Band from Idlewild South (Deluxe Edition). An easy-going song about freedom and resilience
🎵 Song of the week for my daughter — Angeles by Elliott Smith from Either/Or. Although Waltz, No. 2 (XO) is a slightly better song, I think Angeles is a better first listen song.
