This November playlist is a bit of a departure from the upbeat one that I shared with you last month.  As the days grow shorter, I’m finding myself longing to stay in with my husband and be cozy at an increasing rate.  This playlist was created with cold, dark, and snug days in mind and features moodier and, at times, bluesier, sounds from an eclectic mix of songs and artists.  Most notably? The xx have made the list with a brand new single that I’m absolutely loving.  It features the haunting melodies the group is known for paired with rather poignant lyrics about missing out on love.

I have been a big fan of The xx since I first saw them in 2013 at the Hollywood Bowl.  My now-husband took me to that show relatively early on in our relationship and now listening to them always makes me reminisce.  Their live shows are beautifully stripped down and raw.  I highly recommend checking them out in concert if you haven’t already.

I hope that this November playlist helps get those of you that live in colder climates through the early days of winter!
