Once upon a time, years and years ago when I was in high school, I made beginning of the summer playlists that I would listen to as I drove to and from campus each day. The playlists served to get me through finals and the last dragging days of school and set the tone for the summer to come. I thought I was done with those playlists but, as I discovered while compiling this June playlist, I apparently still very much enjoy having a good medley of music to ring in the summer with.
This playlist is happy, it is hopeful, it is my past and present summers epitomized. It might still be overcast and hovering right around seventy degrees in Los Angeles but when I listen to this cheery compilation I’m transported to warmer and sunnier days.
