New Jersey native, Jessie Baylin.
I heard this song a while ago and just thought it was so sweet and simple. Posting video is not my favorite thing. It's best when the music is able to create images in the listener's mind. Jessie just moves to the music in a way that's soothing to watch.

Music Monday...
After a long day at work, an even longer day doing homework, dinner, round two of homework, some snuggle time and a quick shower. I'm finally here. This song has been stuck in my head all day. Mr. Ray LaMontagne, is my brother from another mother. This song instantly reminded me of my Dylan Nesta. He is simply the best thing... the best dude... the sweetest stinker.
Check out upcoming tour dates in L.A., I know I'm not missing this guy.

Music Monday
Lykke Li.
That name caught my attention way back in 2009, as I was reading the 2009 Coachella line-up. The first song I listened to was a remix by Kleerup of her track, Until We Bleed. After the wide spread love of the indie dream pop, love song Little Bit, Lykke Li was a common name. Back in the LittleMissEarworm days, Lykke Li was a common musician I would post about. I posted about her once here. She would perform live obn the streets back in the day. with just a small group of people, a few instruments and a lot of talent.
It's been five years since I've seen her perform live and tomorrow will mark the return of this magic to my ears. I'm excited to see how she's grown as an artist and as a women. Posts from the show to follow!

Exploration
I can't remember the last time I went out, free of kids, free of expectations or even free from a date. I like to think of myself as the ultimate Virgo. "Virgos, more than any other sign, were born to serve, and it gives them great joy... Some might even go as far as calling them self-centered, but it's really more of a desire to surround themselves with what's right -- for them."
Added to the fact that I fully enjoy doing things on my own, (sometimes).
Once I was over the guilt of having some "me time", I was able to just enjoy the day. Balboa is a comfort place for me. As a kid my family would head out in the summer off of, A Street. The day started with perfect weather, tasty food at the Crab Cooker, a quick fresh coconut water, toes in the sand, $1 ferry ride across the harbor, then ended with a short walk to live music and good beers. This, was just what I needed.
Some "me time" is needed for not only mother's but I truly feel like all people need to find the simple things that keep them grounded to the simple pleasures. I'm guilty of getting too involved with the outer aspects of life, all very important things.With work, the household, a school year, all of the after-school activities and making time for friendships. All in which are important aspects. But, who are we when we are alone? I used to have a strong sense of self but lately I've lost it. Can anyone relate?
So here's my, "Get Back In Touch With Your, Me Time", speech:
Get out, do it, find it, search for it, get lost in it, close your eyes and see with your heart, be a kid again and remember where this place is because you'll always want to come back to it. Balboa, Ca

Music Monday...
To say, it's been a while is an understatement. It's been too long and I'm not proud.
Life, work, reality, new-age motherhood and love is all a balance, a balance that I'm still trying to ride out.
I've been inspired to ride this wave again, it's always crazy to me where inspiration comes from. The key for me has always been, not looking for it.
Throughout these long months I've written down some special tunes I've come across, traveled to amazing destinations and have collected some beautiful images along the way. But that's another day. Music Monday, first. Lindsey Buckingham's Big Love has been an all time favorite of mine, so when I came across this remix, I just about feel in love. It's the perfect summer song. CFCF a.k.a Michael Silver, is an Canadian based one man duo (if you will). CFCF's Continent, came out back in 2009, but it fits perfectly with the sounds of a 2014 summer. Similar to artist like, Poolside (on the Pacific Festival 2014 lineup), and Real Estate (also, on the FYF 2014 lineup). I hope I see more of CFCF around!
So, here's to 2014 summer sounds and blogging!
-Cheers

Life...
The open road, the path of greatness
It's at your fingers
Go be the one that keeps on fighting
Go be the stranger
Just put your foot in front the other
Crow like a rooster
Be all in all, together something
Fear is a danger
I say
Spill on the streets of stars
Ride away
Find out what you are
Face to face
The windows are the perfect picture
They're always changing
Go on, get lost, jump in the waters
When they are raging
I say
Spill out on the streets of stars
Ride away
Find out what you are
Face to face
Once you've had enough
Carry on
Don't forget to love
Before you're gone

Music Monday
New Real Estate!!! What's up with 2014 bringing out new music from all of my favorite bands...? These Jersey boy's have been on the scene since 2009. I would love to see this group live and now with this new record, I guess I will finally get my chance!
Horizon is a new track from Atlas, It's Real, from 2011's Self-Titled album.
