March came and went, and—whoops—I may or may not have lost track of time. Consider this my March playlist, fashionably late but still here to party. If February was for longing and existential crisis, March is for... well, coming out of hibernation with a slightly disheveled smile and pretending you've had it together all along.
The Soundtrack For...
🎸 Dusting off your sneakers for an optimistic stroll around the block that immediately turns into a brisk walk because, oh right, it’s still kind of freezing out. Spring, where are you?
🍃 Trying to will warmer weather into existence by playing upbeat songs that sound like sunburn and beer gardens.
🌦 Staring wistfully out the window while it rains (because it always rains when you finally decide to be productive) and pretending you’re in a really emotional music video.
🐥 Doing a little dance in your kitchen to remind yourself you’re still fun and spontaneous, even if you’ve just spilled coffee on your third pair of sweatpants this week.
A Few Standout Tracks
🎶 "Going Up the Country" – Canned Heat
The perfect track for channeling your inner carefree road-tripper, even if you’re just driving to pick up takeout.
🎶 "Evergreen" – Richy Mitch & The Coal Miners
A song that sounds like a crisp breeze and fresh air. Listening to this is basically the same as going for a nature walk, right?
🎶 "Brazil" – Declan McKenna
For when you want to feel both political and catchy. (It's a talent.)
🎶 "Hell N Back" – Bakar
A vibe all on its own. It’s like wearing sunglasses even when it’s cloudy out—unapologetically cool.
🎶 "Trouble" – Cage the Elephant
For the moments when you’re feeling a little bit lost and a little bit found all at once.
