Soul Sides Summer Songs

I created the Summer Songs series back in 2005. The whole concept to ask people: what does a summer song sound like to you?

It has since (slightly) evolved since the concept can run in different ways, the two most resonant being: 1) songs that sound like summer and/or 2) songs that remind you of summer. With that in mind, I began to invite other folks to join in – other music writers, bloggers, DJs, authors, etc. I just wanted people who I thought would have something interesting to say. With every new year, I try to bring in new voices. Unfortunately, we don’t archive the songs themselves; just the write-ups. (It pays to keep up with each season!) I still hope you’ll find something evocative to think about.
