Friends help friends make thoughtfully curated playlists.
Various Swell Sounds is a collaborative playlist series from Jon Doyle of Various Small Flames, Jon Chin of Cereal and Sounds, and Shana of this swell blog you are reading right now. Instead of constantly exchanging tracks amongst each other, we have decided to work together to bring them to more ears. Every month, we will match a selection of our old and brand new favorites to a specific theme.
For playlist number four, we’ve amassed a dynamic collection of songs intended to slowly awaken your senses. Blossoming like springtime flower buds in the returning sunshine, these fresh tunes are leaning into a hopeful brightness with determination. If you let them, they’ll take you for a breezy ride through a floral-infused daydream.
Take a rejuvenating stroll through these beauties!
