I look like a lost puppy LOL

 

This is my current favourite song and it's been for awhile. I can't even relate to the lyrics, really. I'm not heartbroken, going through it or even at risk for it. It's just a good song - the kind that makes you feel like you're experiencing it even when you aren't. James Bay is such a talented musician and it's almost like you can hear his soul and passion through his voice alone. He has a such a strong voice, it projects far out of his skinny frame. Anyhow, he just dropped the video for Scars a few days ago. Check it out above. It's been on my mind a lot for some reason I can't decipher.

All muh love.

A friend is touring with him this summer and I may be stopping to see a show. I'm pumped.

As you guys may have seen in a post previously, while I was in California, I had the chance to finally buy the American Candy vinyl at Amoeba Records. With the luck I have, I happened to unknowingly pick out the deformed + warped record out of the bunch. It scratches every time I play the opening track (which gives me an excuse to go and grab another one if I can find it in Canada!). Let me tell you right off the bat - the creative design on this thing is amazing.

It's officially spring! What better way to start off the season than with an awesome playlist full of new/older variety to get you going. As a someone whose life revolves around music in any shape or form - I'm always on the lookout for new things to listen to. I love receiving music suggestions, I love giving music suggestions and I love the idea of making mixes or playlists for each other. Contrary to what a lot of people believe, there are SO many talent ridden artists and good tunes out there. Dig a little deeper than your average FM and there lies a haven "sicker than your average" as Biggie would say. These are just a few of the songs I've been vibing out to lately. I'm always lurking on Spotify. // LEGACYJYNN

As some of you may or may not know, THE MAINE has their 5th studio album coming ahead of them on March 31st - AMERICAN CANDY.

During the process of recording the album, the guys drove out in the middle of the desert to a little secluded area in Joshua Tree. They rented out a house + created some noise, accompanied by unfiltered, honest words. Along with the idea of being far out from any distractions, they held a BLACKOUT on all social media. Not a single word, photo or noise was taken/made/heard during the process (although- some did better than others on this one).

 Of course, being the music lover I am, I'm obviously going to give you guys a little write up on the best albums made this year. Aaaaand for your convenience, I attached my personal favourite tunes off of each album. Enjoy!
