Something about the summer heat makes one want to blast fun music as loud as one can, no matter what the activity. Maybe you’re trying to make an important deadline at work with the July sun teasing you through the window. Maybe you’ve skipped work altogether and you’re relaxing on the beach. Hey, maybe you’re holed up at home with the AC on high. Whatever your situation – you need some summer fun music. So here’s a thought – why not turn off the top 40, and listen to some indie summer fun music instead? I mean, come on – we all like the song “Get Lucky” by Daft Punk, but you need something new!
Originally this playlist was not gender specific. I had some male fronted bands. Heck, originally, this band was not even “fun.” However, as the playlist evolved, I realized the female fronted bands outnumbered the males by quite a bit. I also noticed the majority of the songs were pretty fun sounding. I am not saying these are all fun songs per se – some are pretty angsty if you listen to the lyrics. However, in general these songs musically sound pretty fun. So….born was the idea of an all girl indie summer fun playlist! Enjoy!
Before I go…
I want to acknowledge that I pretty much lifted the name for this playlist from the incredible “All Girl Summer Fun Band.” If they were still making music – I would have included a track. Sadly, they have not recorded in quite some time. Still – you should check out their music on Spotify, as well as Kim Baxter’s Bandcamp page.
