So, you are a parent of a cute little diaper clad boy. He’s relatively easy to clean and aside from the occasional blowout, everything exiting your little bundle of joy stays contained between changings. Well things are going to change more quickly than you know. Soon, you’ll be dealing with [...]
INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. Kero Kero Bonito I don’t know why Playlist Elevated hasn’t covered English/ Japanese Electronic Bubblegum Pop more extensively. I will attribute it to rarity because Kero Kero Bonito is the only band I know that does it, giving them [...]
INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. Built To Spill One of the best, and (bafflingly) least well known bands to come out of the 90’s was Built to Spill who continue to make beautiful guitar driven magic. Day after day I listen to them and [...]

I have partnered with Life of Dad and Capital One for this campaign, but my opinions are my own. Well here we are three weeks into 2017 and I haven’t made any real resolutions to speak of. Sure, I did the customary “I’ll drink less wine” (declared over a [...]
INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD. Ratatat I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not the biggest fan of most straight electronic music. Still, every now and then a band is able to find an elegant blend of electronic’s repetitive cadence and rock or [...]
