Last night I went to see Animal Collective at the Enmore Theatre. It was amazing.
Best songs, best sound, best lights, best crowd.
I couldn't have asked for more.

The highlights were Summertime Clothes, My Girls and of course Fireworks... but I loved all of it.

I was dancing and grinning the whole night.

Wake up
It's a beautiful morning
Honey, while the sun is still shining
Wake up
Would you like to go with me?
Honey, take a run down to the beach

The Drums are a great new band from Brooklyn. Their debut EP, 'Summertime!' is one of my favourite releases of the year.

As the title suggests, it's fun and Summery. The songs are incredibly catchy with cute lyrics. The Drums are indie-pop at its best and perfect for this Summer.

1. Saddest Summer
2. Let's Go Surfing
3. Make You Mine
4. Don't be a Jerk, Jonny
5. Submarine
6. Down by the Water
