Playlist Extravaganza

Iona Bower May 5, 2020

Some of our favourite The Simple Things playlists from over the years

For our special May ‘scrapbook’ edition, rather than creating a new playlist as we do every month, we thought we’d gather together a few of our favourites from past issues. We hope you enjoy them. You can listen to them all here:

A bounce in your step
Songs to make you smile
Morning songs
Songs to help you slow down
Songs of faraway places
Music that makes us dance
Spring cleaning songs
Songs from the movies
Flower songs
Tea and coffee songs
Sunshine and showers
Music to soak to

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
