I'm creating a mellow acoustic playlist, and looking for ideas on artists/songs to include.
Any suggestions would be welcome. |

Iron and Wine “Such Great Heights”
Sufjan Stevens “Should Have Known Better” Villagers “Becoming A Jackal” Bon Iver “Holocene” Junip “Line Of Fire” Ben Howard “End Of The Affair” Bright Eyes “First Day Of My Life” Damien Rice “9 Crimes” Laura Marling “Cross Your Fingers / Crawled Out of the Sea” Blackbud “Heartbeat” Stateless “Bloodstream” Grizzly Bear “Two Weeks” Investigating the back catalogues of any of the artists above should give you even more suggestions - though Villagers went more electronic/pop on their later stuff - same goes for Grizzly Bear who went more rock on Shields. |

this is my favourite singer-songwriter song for the last year, bit of a lost gem that wasn't a single and got a bit under the radar despite having a great melody and even better lyrics

Recent stuff? I love this newie from The Tallest Man On Earth: didn't know the Tallest Man was known in the UK, but good to see!!!!!!! I thought he was only popular in Scandinavia. Here in Denmark he's quite well known and sells outs all gigs whenever he tours... |
