April, for me, has so far been the most hectic month of the year. With more homework & tests than I could have imagined, taking on extra-curricular activities, and having weekly volunteer commitments, where do I find time to relax? The answer is: music, reading, and naps. I’ve found that putting those 3 together gives me solace amidst my busy schedule. While they’re not the most exciting things in the world, they sure have the potential to be! So when you’re feeling like a zombie on Monday mornings, ready to take on the world on Friday nights or somewhere in between on Sunday afternoons, here are some tunes to get you by:

• I Bet My Life by Imagine Dragons

“Please believe them when they say that it’s left for yesterday.”


• Believe by Mumford and Sons

(Mumford and Sons will be coming to Calgary on Wednesday, August 12th! Other tour dates here.)

“So open up my eyes, tell me I’m alive.”


• Black Flies by Ben Howard

“Comfort came against my will and every story must grow old.”


• The Unknown by Imagine Dragons

“After the people and places are gone, you will come back to me.”


• Honey, I’m Good. by Andy Grammer

(Check out the music video below; too funny and cute!)

“I will stay true.”


• Guns for Hands by twenty one pilots

“Let’s go outside and all join hands, but until then you’ll never understand.”


• Work Song by Hozier

“No grave can hold my body down.”


• Tranquilize by Finish Ticket

“I don’t wanna know, I’ll just let it play out.”


• I Am by AWOLNATION

(Fact: this song was newly featured in a Red Bull commercial!)

“All of these things make me who I am.”


• Someone New by Hozier

“Would things be easier if there was a right way?”


• I See You by Luke Bryan

“Stuck like a melody in my head.”


• Mirrored Sea by Passion Pit

(Still loving Passion Pit this month; truly a great band!)

“…leave me be.”


• Apollo by Magic Man

“We’ll stop this little game and save ourselves.”


• Unclear by Kodaline

“You gotta be tough if you wanna survive.”


• Love Like This by Kodaline

“We’re running ’round and ’round like nothing else could matter in our lives.”
