My newest song obsession! Give me a cup of coffee and put this on repeat. I love those minor chords & how shockingly normal this song is. -AI

Happy Music Monday! Have you ladies heard this cover of “Skinny Love” by Birdy? (Sidenote: this British musician is all of… 16. Just in case that makes you feel incredibly old like it makes me, hah!) 

This young pianist/singer has also covered some songs by The Xx (“Shelter”) and Phoenix (“1901”) if you want to check ‘em out. Love, Nik

The incredible JJ Pauly sent this to me awhile ago and I’m finally posting it! I love it! Do you? -AI

First Listen: Regina Spektor, 'What We Saw From The Cheap Seats'

NPR has been hooking it up regarding new music lately! Earlier this week they posted the full new Edward Sharpe album, and now there’s a first look of Regina Spektor’s record “What We Saw From The Cheap Seats.” Thanks, NPR!

Time to crank up the volume and give it a listen! Love, Nik

I saw AI tweet about this new song, “Man on Fire” by Edward Sharpe and had to share. (Good find, chica.) Looking forward to hearing the new album!

Have you ladies heard any good music lately? Love, Nik

My talented friend Caleb Hawley never disappoints! Check out his new tune, “Let a Little Love In,” which he performed in NYC earlier this month. Love, Nik

My news feed(s) have been full of reviews of Norah Jones’s new album “Little Broken Hearts.” Have you ladies listened to any of it yet? Here’s her first single, ‘Happy Pills.’ Thoughts? Love, Nik

Bon Iver - I Can’t Make You Love Me. Incredible. -AI

I’ve been in go-mode these past few days and have been listening to chill tunes on repeat to maintain my sanity. Just discovered this new song from up-and-coming artist Amy Rose and I’m digging her vibe! Thoughts? Love, Nik

Sweet Child of Mine by Taken by Trees. A chill cover of an old fave. -AI

This is the music video for “Ami’s Song” by I’m Not a Pilot. It features my friends/yoga instructors/dancers Jaimi (of Friday candlelight yoga fame) and her boyfriend Steve. They are two of the sweetest, most talented people I know. Enjoy! ~LP

This video of ballet dancers captured in slow motion at 1,000 frames per second is pretty mesmerizing. (The Radiohead sountrack probably helps.) Love, Nik

On hectic days I like to play chill music to balance out the crazy. I’ve been playing Jason Mraz’s single “I Won’t Give Up” on repeat for that very reason.

What do you ladies like to listen to when you just want to relax? Love, Nik
