Here’s a playlist of indie music from different genres to calm your spirits
Lucas Davies – “Only in my mind”-I appreciate the energy of this piece. It’s a little bit rock, a little bit folk, and a lot of chill. I also think the intellectual lyrics, focusing on the life of the mind is a much …
A working-from-home playlist for spring 2020
