Songs have a simple yet powerful way with how they can instantly evoke the smallest memories back into our minds. During the summertime, the need for exciting thoughts of warmer and brighter times. Songs of these hot months haunt us like the waters, waves coming to shore on the surface reflecting something deeper and more sentimental with the simple hum of a melody. We’ve compiled our preferred tunes to take it easy to as we sit in the sand and soak in the golden sunshine of a sunny day by the beach, because there’s nothing more classic about summer than a comforting warmth.

Listen to the full playlist as you head down to the shores one more time before the summer days grow shorter!
