Music I've Been Digging Lately

Music is one of my very favorite things in the world.

Always has been.

Sharing things I’m excited about is up there too.

So this week, I just want to share what I’ve been listening to lately and the playlist I put together for this season.

I made for the sweltering days of summer.

Hot runs, beaches, pools, lakes, BBQs, coconut La Croixs, broken down motorbikes.

Man, I love good clouds.

A couple months ago I was in NYC for ICFF with my dear pal Matt Castilleja. One night we were drinking wine on his hotel balcony and he threw this on the A1.

And then he talked shit on the A1 and said it wasn’t powerful enough.

I didn’t have it turned all the way up, Matt.

I want an Airstream.

I love jazz, and Erroll Garner is one of my favorites. I’ve always loved how loose he played. The noises he makes are the sprinkles on top.

I’ve been listening to Mack Keane a lot since this album. This song has hints of Prince in it. Real nice.

My most-listened to song of 2025. I come back to this often.

Way back when, Phil Cook played in a band with Justin Vernon (Bon Iver). Regarding Phil, Justin Vernon said, “No one has taught me more about music in my life than him.”

He’s got a great voice.

• “Is it really a risk if you’re risking a life you didn’t want anyway?” - somebody

• “Instructions for living a life: Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it.” — Mary Oliver

Question for y’all - What music have you had on repeat lately?

Cheers, Y’all!
