Playlist for Fall in Italy

via 

I've always been obsessed with music. It's been a good week for music in my book, as the new Damien Rice was released & new Copeland (a band I never thought I'd hear from again) dropped a few days ago.

One of my favorite things to do when I travel is wander the streets with my headphones in and a killer soundtrack. 

We're gearing up to leave for Italy, so I thought I needed a new playlist for the long train rides. 

Press play, close your eyes, and imagine that you're in a train car with countryside passing at high speeds. Every song goes. It's a little moody & a bit melancholy, but it definitely works :) 

T-2 days and we're off!

PS - Just to be clear: I feel the same way about Spotify as Taylor Swift. I believe artists should have the opportunity to get gold & platinum record certifications (T-Swift's 1989 is the ONLY album this year to reach platinum.... maybe because people had to actually purchase it?!). I believe in buying music & supporting artists that you love! I only used Spotify to be able to embed this playlist... I do not pay for a Spotify subscription because I buy albums. All of the songs you see above, I own personally :) And I think you should buy them, too!

An Autumn Playlist

There are seasons in Tennessee, which I greatly appreciate about it. Florida never afforded me reasons to wear scarves or build bonfires, so I'm into it.

Cambridge in the Fall. You should go sometime.

I'm all about music that fits the mood, and fall has it's own special mood. It's not quite the holidays, but it's definitely not bright and cheery like summer anymore, and i LOVE IT.

Bring on the cool days and mellow tunes.

Are there any other fall releases I've missed?
