On somewhat of a tear with playlists, inspired by a roadtrip taken this past week up to Maine. Gotta have some new meat on the speakers for eight hours in the car. This time around I wanted to return to the palette of folky, country, charming, groovy tunes I had built playlists like I Dreamt Of Reeds Again, which I made for another roadtrip (that one in Arizona). 

I’d like to think of this playlist as grounding, wistful, comfortably nostalgic, optimistic and attempting to dig out of a slouch of grief. Lots of heavy hitters like Carole King, Arthur Russell, Nico, Emmylou Harris, Neil Young, Weyes Blood, and more. “There Was A Moon” was my favorite discovery while making the playlist, since it’s been too long since we’ve heard Molly Sarlé’s voice on a track. Really beautiful. Hope you enjoy, especially as we get deeper into fall.
