In our little corner of the world, the countdown to Labor Day is a slow. hot, sweltering march whose finish line pulls closer into focus as soon as the smoke from the 4th of July fireworks dissipate. It's the perfect time to start curating the tonal vibrations that will flow from your bluetooth speaker on the last long weekend until Thanksgiving. Whether you'll be driving, grilling, boating, fishing, tinkering, or lounging - this playlist will stop you in the middle of whatever you're doing and say to yourself, "who is this?!".
If you've been too busy soaking in the last drops of summer to curate your own pre-fall jams, we're here to help⚡️ Beach & Barn's very own Jeff Stillwell has been curating a playlist of deep cuts, personal favorites, and b-sides that lather on the Beach & Barn vibes thicker than SPF200 sunscreen.
For a best of the best sampling, I'd recommend you start with the familiarly unfamiliar "Lawyers, Guns and Money" by the late Warren Zevon, "The Righteous Path" by Beach & Barn staff favorite Drive By Truckers, and if those don't convince you to Add The Playlist to Your Queue, Jeff has also included "Dig For Fire" by your wife's least favorite band, The Pixies.
Got a favorite current, old, or up and coming band you want Jeff to include on Volume 2? Let us know here.
Rusty Meador is the founder of Beach & Barn, and is always looking for people, places, and things that combine workhorse grit with a laid back coastal vibe.
