Chick Tunes Tuesday: April 2014 Playlist

This guy… THIS GUY… he made my entire month. St. Paul & the Broken Bones. It’s like watching an accountant being possessed by Otis Redding… only better.

You love them don’t you. I do too. I found them via NPR because all good things come from public radio. Read more about these guys here… worth your time, I promise.

You need another don’t you… Here you go:

So this month’s playlist has a couple from my new favorites. I threw in some new songs from old favorites The Black Keys and Elbow as well.

Spring is coming: roll down those windows and turn up the tunes!

Enjoy.

Chick Tunes Tuesday: St. Patrick’s Day 2014

So much whining and complaining. So a couple of you (I am looking at YOU C & M) were unhappy with my March 2014 playlist choices. Actually you were unhappy with my lack of St. Patrick’s Day themed choices. It’s as if you don’t know me. Obviously I create an entire NEW and FANCY playlist for St. Patrick’s Day.

Dropkick Murphys? CHECK.

Flogging Molly? CHECK.

The WILD ROVER. CHECK and DOUBLE CHECK.

Inappropriate songs by Irishmen? CHECK

Here she is in all her glory. The Coastal Chick St. Patrick’s Day Playlist of 2014.

“Here’s to cheating, stealing, fighting, and drinking.
If you cheat, may you cheat death.
If you steal, may you steal a woman’s heart.
If you fight, may you fight for a brother.
And if you drink, may you drink with me”

Sláinte!

Chick Tunes – March 2014

I am not going to lie, I am enjoying Spotify, like a LOT. I was not a fan in the beginning. “WHY do I need it”, I asked myself. I had everything I wanted on iTunes. Well, iTunes did some updates and it was not nice. Discovering new music has become cumbersome. Saving songs for playlists has become downright unpleasant. This month’s playlist is beefy – about 20 songs. In fact I had to delete a few because I thought there were too many. It was a shock to me also.

So without further Spotify worship, the March 2014 Coastal Chick Playlist. Enjoy.

Chick Tunes: February 2014

Another snow day. Lord help me, I love my children but two snow days in the same week seems like cruel and unusual punishment. I have been catching up on work all day and listening to the monthly playlist.

It’s time to try something a little different. It’s not perfect, but let’s give it a try. I am moving playlists over to Spotify. I know, I know, you need to download Spotify to listen. It no longer plays straight from the website. I don’t love it either BUT let’s give it a try and see what we think. Spotify is growing on me – lots of great music options (Grooveshark didn’t have everything), album cover art, cool playlists you can access on your phone and then share… It’s a new year, let’s try something new!

Follow me on Spotify and I will follow you back. I love sharing great tunes and playlists.

Enjoy!
