Summer is a time for excellent music. It’s when I load my iPod with crazy tunes for all sorts of occasions– parties, relaxing, late evening walks, and more.
So, I’ve been going on a music spree these last few weeks in preparation for summer (which has finally arrived, rather late!). These are some of my favourites that I’ve stumbled across so far. You might not know them, but I think that you should.
Georgia by Alex Day – Alex’s new CD came out last night, and I was super stoked to get my hands (?) on this track, since I loved it so much on this video. You may recognize Alex from Alex Reads Twilight. Well, he’s also a very pleasant musician. Yay!
Listen to it on Alex’s site. | Buy it on iTunes.
C’est L’été by Tricot Machine – I don’t care if you don’t speak French (er… Quebecois), you must must must listen to the song. It is unbelievably cheerful and just wonderful to listen to! I have their whole album, but this is my favourite song.

Say You Don’t Want It by One Night Only – Admittedly, I was only exposed to this song because Emma Watson is in the video (the extremely adorable video). But it is extremely catchy, just the sort of music that I love.
Listen to it on YouTube. | Album out in August!
Edge (End of the World) by Brock Zanrosso – Uh, yeah. I love this song so much. So so so much. Not even just because he’s my cousin, but because it’s catchy, and a little bit dramatic, and I have a weakness for songs that involve some variation of the words “take my hand.”
Listen to it on YouTube. | Buy it on iTunes!!!
Ch-ch-ch-check ‘em out! And let me know what you think! And tell me what you’re listening to this summer (or last summer, or the summer before, or…), so I can add it to my play list!
Yay for both writing music-y entries
One Night Only sounds like they might be interesting – I’ll have to check out more of their music and see if I like it. I think the songs you posted is a bit too… boring for me, but they have potential!
…nevermind, I did some listening, and I don’t like them :-P
I think our music taste is way different from each other
Haha, I already know the Alex Day song
I don’t like his voice a huge amount to be honest, I think it’s his irritating accent(yay for sounding racist, though I didn’t mean it like that), but it’s not too bad. :3 I didn’t know the rest, but listening to them the only one I like much is Say You Don’t Want It. The rest aren’t bad, they’re just really not my thing. Actually, it isn’t either really, but I just like it for some reason. Oh well.
