Songs That Send Us episodes
- River by Leon Bridges
This week we decided to change the vibe a little -- we mellow things out with River by Leon Bridges. Leon has a smooth, silky voice that embodies the 50s and 60s. Annie and Shadin highlight all the cool shows River has been featured in and why Leon's music is such easy listening.

31 min - Young & Free by Dermot Kennedy
It's about time we talk about one of our favorite humble Irish artists, who also happens to be one of the most poetic lyricists: Dermot Kennedy. Dermot aka Dreamy always sings with raw emotion, most of his songs ~send~ us but this week Songs That Send Us is focusing on Young & Free. We talk what lyrics we'd get tattooed on us, reading music and Shadin continues to be jealous of the concerts Annie has been to.

40 min - Bite the Hand by Boygenius
Boygenius: 3 amazingly talented indie rock female artists that we know and love. Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker. A collaboration we didn't know we needed before 2018. This week we talk all about their song Bite the Hand, the sometimes weird relationships artists have with their fans and Annie's love of Temptation Island.

39 min - Space Song by Beach House
Is any good late night playlist complete without Space Song? The only correct answer is no.
This ep we gush about how great the Summerfest lineup is (yay for the return of live music), but more importantly how hypnotic Beach House songs are and why Space Song makes us feel so tender. We dare you to listen with your eyes closed and not feel like you're floating.

30 min - Ur Name on a Grain of Rice by Runnner
Have you ever heard of your name on a grain of rice? Spoiler, Shadin hasn’t but Annie has. For this episode, Annie picked perhaps the most "underground" song we've talked about yet. Ur Name on a Grain of Rice is an indie/alternative ballad that raises the question of whether it's better to be vulnerable and speak your truth, or move on.
P.s. yes, there are 3 n's in Runnner, that's not a typo.

33 min - A Låpsley 2-in-1 special!
This week we've got a 2-in-1 episode! Shadin liked Station and Hurt Me too much to just choose one so get ready to be hit by two Låpsley bops. If you're a Låpsley fan you probably already know these songs, if you don't know Låpsley, well then you're welcome. Låpsley is a singer-songwriter that really does it all, producing sick beats and unique pitches all on her own.

30 min - We Don't Eat by James Vincent McMorrow
It's fair to say Annie and Shadin have a soft spot for Irish singers (looking at you Dermot Kennedy and Hozier). Today's episode is all about James Vincent McMorrow, who is perhaps a bit underrated. James brings emotion to all of his songs and today, Songs That Send Us wanted to take a crack at his beautiful song, We Don't Eat. Look out for his new album dropping July 16!

34 min - Glee Covers!
Whether you hated it or loved it, Glee was a big part of pop culture for six years. They covered all the greats and some lesser known songs. In this special episode, Annie and Shadin go through their favorite covers -- plus the ones they think are better than the original -- and the cringiest songs, because let's be real, some numbers were just uncomfortable to watch (hello, What Does the Fox Say).
Get nostalgic with us and let your inner ~Gleek~ out.

33 min - Forever & Always by Taylor Swift
Two episodes in one week? We just had to in honor of Fearless (Taylor's Version) dropping this week.
In this second special Taylor Swift episode, Annie's roommate Lyssa joins the pod squad to discuss being handpicked by Taylor's mom TWICE and why Forever & Always is such a relatable song.
