Hello and welcome to this new segment I like to call, “THE WEEKLY PLAYLIST”! Can you call non-tv articles a segment? Oh well, what’s done is done. So here’s how this is gonna work: you’re gonna get to see a glimpse into the world of music that I listen to, and I’ll throw in a couple more local, or lesser known bands that I think deserve a spotlight. The playlist is featured below.
Lizdelise, “Tell Me”
I had the honor of recently playing long side these talented people, and watching them make all these dream-noises on stage was other worldly. They just released their album “Holy Matrimony” and are embarking on a tour down to Texas from Philly as we speak.

Cyndi Lauper, “Time After Time”
I will tell YOU, I can not stop listening to this gal. I’m hovering on a healthy level of obsession, I’ll be honest. Cydni is the kind of songwriter I aspire to be, amazing lyrics that you decipher into her real life moments and experiences.
Lady Gaga, “Hey Girl”
This is a girls supporting girls anthem. And even better than that, it’s sung by LADY GAGA AND FLORENCE WELCH!
MARINA, “Oh No!”
After a long hiatus, MARINA (formerly, Marina and the Diamonds) is back with new some new alt-pop tunes for us to bop to. I hadn’t thought about Marina in some time, but I remember loving this song to death when I was 13 so it’s been put back onto my playlist recently. A good song never gets old.
Woman Believer, “Maybe”
Never underestimate what you can find on your discover weekly. Woman Believer is from Detroit, and creates quite the lovely noise experience. Some jazzy influence, throw in some feminism, some noodly riffs, and that’s a pretty good musical soup.
