There's nothing I love more in Autumn than sticking on the kettle, wrapping up in a massive duvet and pressing play to my favourite acoustic album, accompanied by the sound of the pelting rain outside. This is a playlist compiling all my favourite songs to listen to before things start to get real christmassy. It usually ranges from acoustic to folk, and there's some incredibly powerful female singers thrown in for good measure.
THE BANDS:
Fleet Foxes could honestly just take up this whole playlist, but I refrained from doing that. The hauntingly beautiful harmonies from Robert Pecknold are enough to have you hooked.
Bon Iver are pretty much synonymous for music on them rainy days. Or days when you want a bit of background music reading a good book. Or pretty much every day. Justin Vernon's lyrics and the sombre tone of the debut 'For Emma, Forever Ago' are basically the soundtrack of the colder months for me.
THE ALBUM:
Lucy Rose- Like I Used To is a 'soft and sad debut' as described by NME, this is definitely an album for lazy Sunday Mornings. Check the songs 'Shiver' and 'First'.
