These are a few of the songs I’ve been listening to on repeat recently. Some are new and some are older, but they are all pretty wonderful.
If I Had a Boat – James Vincent McMorrow
I can’t get enough of the chorus to this song. The rest of this album, Early in the Morning, is great as well.
Don’t You Want It – The White Buffalo
His new album comes out September 10, I can’t wait! The entire album is written from the perspective of a war veteran coming home and finding his place once more. Based on this song, it’s going to be good. Also, here’s a link to an interview he did at the WSJ.
Cover Me Up – Jason Isbell
This version is gritty, but I think it captures more of the raw emotion in the song.
Summer Girls – Mike Clark and the Sugar Sounds
This. is. the. SONG. OF. THE. SUMMER. I can’t get enough.
You Put the Flame on It – Charles Bradley
This guy used to be a James Brown impersonator and you can totally tell in his music.
