Every Monday morning, I send the Monday Morning Brew, a curated playlist for all our Paid Substack Subscribers. It’s a great way to start the week, as music is much more than escapism. This week’s playlist is free to all.
Monday mornings often arrive heavy with expectation, but music has a peculiar power to transform the start of your week. As Matt Haig writes in his novel, How to Stop Time, “Music doesn’t get in. Music is already in. Music simply uncovers what is there, makes you feel emotions that you didn’t necessarily know you had inside you, and runs around waking them all up. A rebirth of sorts.”
The latest playlist is just under two hours long and features music from Catrin Finch, Mitski, Charlotte Cornfield, Iron & Wine, Jesca Hoop, Majke Voss, Gia Margaret, Rob Noyes, Benedicte Maureseth, Tucker Zimmerman, and lots more. Check it out now on Substack:
