April 6th Playlist!

Last weekend was Vive Fest 3, a truly indie rock festival to kick off spring. From what I could tell, it was a great success with 3 venues going and lots of great indie rock bands. I had the pleasure of hosting Samantha Savage and her band (5 in total) on my living room floor. They were such lovely people and it is always nice to host people who are thankful for a place to sleep that isn't their van (even if one of them was allergic to my dog - sorry, Chris!). It was a great coming together of people who truly love and appreciate independent music. Today is also the day of birth of my friends Amanda and Lucas! I am excited to welcome this little person into the world with a bit of music dedicated to Baby Storey.
