Well, it’s a touch late, but it’s still here: Independent Clauses Spotify Playlist 2 for 2022. Lisa’s additions to the summer soundtrack include music from artists gracing the blog’s pages and music I discovered at some recent festivals rescheduled as a result of the pandemic. I was overwhelmed by the women I heard onstage, including Samantha Fish, Lindsay Lou, and ORGONE. Mixed with these great voices and performances was an incredible mix of soul, blues rock, and roots, sliding towards the hip hop and jazz-infused brilliance of New Orleans trumpeter Shamarr Allen. In the end, this playlist is all about the vibrancy of life unfolding, as Shakey Graves reminds us.
Stephen’s additions include mellow sounds from Alister Fawnwoda, Cool Maritime, Lunar Lemur, and Airport People. Peppier inclusions from Gold Panda, Fantastic Cat, and CLIFFWALKER round out the collection. —Lisa Whealy & Stephen Carradini
