Sidebar: I have to share this music with you. Like now.

I am a huge music nerd and all I want to do all of the time is tell people to listen to ______ because I’m obsessed. It usually changes in phases. One month I could be on a huge Blind Pilot kick, for a couple of years it might be Lil Wayne, or an all-of-the-time thing like Beyonce (my music library is very diverse).

Here are some picks that I can’t stop listening to:

Thanks to my cousin Sandy, I can’t stop listening to this while biking, spreading my arms apart and moving to the wind. It’s so groovy.

This next one is most definitely inspired by watching Perks Of Being A Wallflower. The memorable dance scene featuring the song, “Come On, Eileen” by Dexys Midnight Runners.

And because I don’t want to push too many songs on you, I’ll finish the last one with something that is more up my alley in terms of music genre. I recently found out that Alt-J will be one of the thousands of bands playing at SXSW 2013. I am super stoked to see them in the spring.

P.S. If you haven’t been listening to the new Ellie Goulding album 50 times over by now, we need to talk.
