There are some bands that just sound like summer. Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever, are one of them. Those jangly guitars, the three part harmonies… pressing play on their songs sends me straight to the beach, to balmy nights and road trips with friends.
We’re on the cusp of summer right now but given 2020’s shitshow of a year I figured we may as well skip ahead to that happy place. So I asked Tom from the band to Take 5 with his “songs of summer”. Whether it’s a sound, or a memory, he transported us to dance festivals, and family holidays, to rolling waves and Australian classics. Like eating an ice-cream, there’s no way you can be sad listening to these songs.
Amen Dunes - 'Miki Dora'
The Shapeshifters - 'Lola's Theme'
Sunflower Bean - 'Twentytwo'
Gilberto Gil - 'Palco'
The Triffids - 'Hell of A Summer'
