Fall 2017 Playlist

Even though I love making playlists at the start of each new season, I think that there’s something extra special about crafting the perfect fall playlist. I know for me personally, there have been albums released in the fall over the years that are very important to me and have become quintessential fall albums (I’m thinking about doing a post on this – if you’re into it, let me know).

As the weather gets drastically colder here in Chicago, I have come to find that there is just some music that is more enjoyable during fall and winter compared to our warmer months – and vice versa. The playlist below is a work in progress – and also has a mixture of some of my favorite songs to listen to during the fall, as well as new music that I have continued to discover this month.

If an artist below is linked and starred, that means they have a show in Chicago within the next few months.
