As summer runs its dry course what better to pour some water on the soul than songs about nature and summertime?
I deeply recommend That Summer by Bishop Allen. It is rare that you get a song about beetles even though their impact in Western forests over the last few years cannot be understated.
Next up is another nod to insect infestations, a cicada compilation! Listen to songs about the critters that caused quite a buzz and a few tasty treats this summer.
There is only one artist I trust to write good songs about trees and that is Lizzie Wright Super Spaceship. This artist and forestry graduate student from Mississippi rocks a mean ukelele in the song titled Us. The track compares and contrasts people to trees in a way that is not nearly as cheesy as it sounds.
Any other summer track recommendations out there?
