"Painkiller Weather" by Grayscale
Featured Song: “Gold Past Life” by Fruit Bats
Carly says, "I’ve had Fruit Bats’ latest album on repeat this summer, but title track “Gold Past Life” is definitely the biggest ear worm. Heavily influenced by golden oldies like Supertramp and Fleetwood Mac, the Chicago group present a single heavy with nostalgia for the past, while tying in present day pop as well. With its upbeat synth, enchanting acoustic guitar, and silky smooth vocals, this track is sure to make you feel like a teenager in 1976, cruising down the highway without a care."
"Pictures of Girls" by Wallows
"How I Get Myself Killed" by Indigo de Souza
"The Thrill" by Yam Haus
"Lifestyle" by Dizzy Fae
Featured Song: "Worn/Wander" by Vundabar
Risa says, "When this album came out summer of 2015, it was all I could listen to! Every summer since, it has been a staple, especially the track “Worn/Wander”. Much like the song, I used to listen to this song in my car with the windows down, dreaming of moving to the city. Now that I live in the city, I listen to this track walking around, or on the bus, wishing I could spend summer back home! Nevertheless, older Vundabar tracks off Gawk definitely have a surf-rock vibe to them, marking them perfect for this playlist!"
