New Playlist Alert: Fall Forward Hipster Equinox
For folks who live in places that experience four distinct seasons, fall is often a favorite. It’s easy to see why, even without the ever-expanding pantheon pumpkin spice products.
Layers of comfortable clothing like flannels, hoodies, and puffy vests come back without the need to be completely bundled. Cool, crisp air and sunshine invite us outside to pick some apples, go on a hike with our furry companions, play a pick up game of football (or football). As the days move closer towards the holidays, hints of winter tease the hygge lifestyle and give us permission to stay inside, read a book, listen to vinyl, or enjoy an extra cup of coffee or tea. And for the introspective hipster dudes, the beard and beanie combinations seem to arrive with the changing leaves.
We’ve pulled some of our favorite tracks by writers and performers who are bearded and prefer a melancholy cabin life to the hustle of urbanity. Lots of flannel, plaid, weathered leather boots within.
Fall Forward Hipster Equinox features varying levels of indie folk, roots pop, and traditional folk, balancing lush layers with acoustic bedroom sketches. Through it all, acoustic guitars and dusty pianos propel narratives that are playful, inspiring, fragile, and hopeful.
The season may be fleeting, but Fall Forward Hipster Equinox invites you to soak up every minute.
