Autumn

The air outside is getting cooler, I've worn jeans for the first time in months and there are some leaves beginning to fall from the trees in my yard. I've had Octoberfest and Pumpkin beer...that to me means one thing; Autumn. As you can tell, I have a thing for the fall. I love this season more than the others. I love everything associated with it: apple pie, pumpkins, the leaves, etc. I also find it a prime time to enjoy some music.

I've put together a Autumn playlist with some of my favorite songs for the upcoming season. Most of them have nothing at all to do with Autumn, they just seem to fit the season and most of them are depressing as hell. To me they represent the season and the mood and make for good driving "looking at the leaves" songs. Here you go:


In full Autumn color scheme as well...haha.

S. Carey - "All We Grow"

You may know Sean Carey as the drummer for Bon Iver or you may not know him at all.  His debut album "All We Grow" came out on 8-24 and its been a regular on my ipod since.  It's a fantastic debut and something that will continue to get regular plays from me this fall.  It makes another wonderful companion piece for Autumn.  Carey is opening for the Tallest Man on Earth this fall, be sure to check them out.  Check out these two tracks.

S. Carey - In the Stream


S. Carey - We Fell


"All We Grow" available on Itunes now. 

Love Language and Sufjan

Haven't blogged in a bit, been recovering from the sausage retreat. I'm back today with a short post about two songs I've been loving a lot lately.  First up we have "Pedals" from the Love Language off of their new album "Libraries".  The lyrics get me everytime, especially the end with "lay you down in my chest".  Take a listen.

Second, we have Sufjan Stevens and "Heirloom" off his surprise "All Delighted People" ep.  Haven't given the ep a complete listen but "Heirloom" is wonderful.



All in all two great listens and one short post.  Enjoy.
