Songs of the Summer
Songs of the Summer
Allow us to set the scene. You hop in the driver’s seat of your car while all of your closest friends pile in the back. You grab your shades off of your head and pull them down over your eyes, roll down the windows, and turn the speakers all the way up. Headed 20 miles out of town, you’re cruising down winding backroads with fields of luscious green on either side of you. The sun is beating down on your face, but the wind keeps you cool. Finally, you arrive at your favorite, hidden lake spot. Everyone jumps out of the car and heads for the water with coolers, lawn chairs, and beach towels in hand. You find yourself the perfect piece of land to park your lawn chair, crack open a cold one, and throw on your favorite summer tunes. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. This is the soundtrack of the summer.
