trace of lime | walkin’ music
This playlist is all about sounds that make you want to walk with some pep in your step. We love syncopation, funky bass and powerful drums and try to capture that same energy in our own music. Many of these songs are from artists that have influenced us throughout...
blake english, spiders make great poets

merritt gibson, “breaking down”
If you're looking for a song to absolutely lose your shit to, "Breaking Down" by Merritt Gibson is going to be the tearjerker of the week, if not the entire month. We're hoping spring showers happen for us to be able to enjoy this one in its most raw form, but either...
