If you haven't checked out Peter Wolf Crier do it.  Very enjoyable album.  Summery and friendly and makes me happy.  Plus at least one half of the band is super nice (Brian Moen).  I'm sure the other dude is just as genuine.
 
Also, I'm really digging the new The New Pornographers.  Every song isfresh  and makes me want to quit my job and rock out full time.  F'reals.

Wed, 12 May 2010 13:27:25 -0700 Summer Mix http://musicismylove.posterous.com/summer-mix http://musicismylove.posterous.com/summer-mix
Magpie to the Morning - Neko Case
Summersong - The Decemberists
Summer Bird Diamond - Seabear
Summer is the Champion - Laura Veirs
Summer Day - Coconut Records
Summer Skin - Death Cab for Cutie
Sleep All Summer - St. Vincent and The National
Summer Teeth - Wilco
It's Summertime - The Flaming Lips
That Summer at Home I had become the Invisible Boy - The Twilight Sad
Sleep Through Summer - Now, Now Every Children
 
Yes, I realize that the first tite doesn't have the word "summer" in it, but it has the best summer line ever, "Don't let this fading summer pass you by."
 
I sincerely love all these songs, even though all I did was search for "summer" in my iTunes.  The only two I never really listened to before were the Seabear and The Flaming Lips songs, but I love both those bands, so how could I not add them.
 
The stars from this play list are "Summer is the Champion" and "Sleep All Summer" and "Summer Teeth."  Those are my favorites forever and ever. 
 
What would you add to this list?

Just so you know...I'm crabby today.  
 
Here's some music to get you through the weekend.
 
Artist:  Midlake's 
Album:  Trials of Van Occupanther
Song:  Head Home
I like to say that they are a cross between Seawolf and Fleetwood Mac.  With a little bit of Thom Yorke thrown in.  (Also, this album makes me think of the original 1973 movie "The Wickerman."  Not sure why.)
 
Artist:  Califone
Album:  Roots & Crowns
Song:  Spider's House
I'm so in love with the horns in this song.  I'd marry them after a brief, but fiery courtship.
 
Artist:  Blakroc
Album:  Blakroc
Song:  Ain't Nothing Like You (Hoochi Coo) (feat. Jim Jones & Mos Def)
Shall we crank it up a notch?  Yes, please.

Thu, 15 Apr 2010 15:19:00 -0700 Wintersleep http://musicismylove.posterous.com/wintersleep-27 http://musicismylove.posterous.com/wintersleep-27
Artist: Wintersleep
 
With beards like that how could you resist?  Also, the music is good.  Makes me think of an outdoor casual wedding...in a good way.  Not a cheesy cover band kind of way.  Like friends sitting on a back porch jamming and making amazing music.
 
Take a listen to Wintersleep's song "Early to Bed" located below.
 
For a free download of their song "New Inheritors" visit their website: http://www.wintersleep.com/
