| Gettin' my green on for March! |
Phew! Despite the Groundhog's prediction, Spring is in the air and my sinuses can feel it. But I shall not let personal congestion interfere with my intentions to get this month's playlist out on time! I felt myself gravitating towards folk-rock this month but as always, there's a little bit of everything. To listen on Spotify, click HERE.
1. Don't Take the Night (The Driver Era, Ross Lynch & Rocky) - Brothers and former R5 members get us started with this pulsating rock tune!
2. Dead Weight (Maggie Rose) - Grammy nominee known mostly for her country music proves she can also rock with the best of them!
3. Growing Pains (Trousdale) - Country-tinged pop band (pop-tinged Country band?) has a positive energy that will get any juke joint jumpin'! I can hear a Shania influence.
4. Sally, When the Wine Runs Out (Role Model) - Frequent Brantworld listee dropped a few Bonus Tracks for his latest album! This was one of my faves.
5. Please, Please, Please (Sabrina Carpenter with Dolly Parton) - Sabrina is living her best life! I've seen her sing with a few of her idols lately - Xtina, Taylor Swift, and now Dolly!
6. Baby Blue (Willow Avalon) - I thought this was the Bob Dylan song when I first saw the title, but it's completely different (and still great!). I wasn't familiar with the singer, but I will have to start paying attention to her from now on!
7. Feel Like Makin' Love (Roberta Flack) - What a loss to the world with Roberta Flack gone. Her music, particularly "Killing Me Softly with His Song", has become part of the fabric of American music. RIP.
8. Bloom (aimei) - Chinese/UK artist has a knack for catchy pop melodies.
9. Supernova (Supertaste) - I forget where I first heard this, but (of course) I was immediately drawn to the classic disco vibes!
10. Poolside (Nao) - It's been a while since we've had her on one of our playlists, but Nao is back with some summery soul!
11. Love Hangover (Jennie & Dominic Fike) - K-pop star steps out from Blackpink with this slinky bedroom bop (not to be confused with the Diana Ross song!).
12. Add Up My Love (Clairo) - Clairo was on our January 2025 playlist, and happily we have this new offering from her latest album!
13. Mona Lisa on a Mattress (Bishop Briggs) - Confident alt-rock from UK artist.
14. One Bullet Left (Yam Haus) - Easygoing folk-rock from American Indie band.
15. Following the Feeling (Tommy Newport) - I got a 1970s singer/songwriter vibe from this that felt perfect for the pleasant Spring weather!
16. Plastic Horses (Colby Acuff) - Energetic Americana from Idaho singer/songwriter.
17. Where I Belong (Galactic with Irma Thomas) - Holy cow! Irma Thomas is still going strong and sounding great at 84! Yaaaaaaas, queen!
18. I'll Be Okay (Michigander) - We last had him on our December 2024 playlist! Optimistic (which Lord knows we all need right now) folk-rock from Kalamazoo band.
19. Glasgow (Pale Waves) - I love this lead singer's voice!!! Very Cranberries/90s alt-rock vibes!
20. Milestones (Gift) - Brooklyn band closes us out with some groovy rock!
So that's March's playlist! Stock up on decongestants, use that Neti pot, and I'll see you in April!
