Whiskey & Bananas Playlist Vol. 28
Featuring Curtis Mayfield, Paul McCartney, Lizzo & Caroline Smith, The Ethiopians & more
Move On Up — Curtis Mayfield
Kicking things off with this uplifting soul classic.
Straight Up And Down — The Brian Jonestown Massacre
Hard to say no to retro British Invasion-style rock from one of the top indie bands of the past 20 years.
Long Time Now — The Ethiopians
Reggae ska always puts a smile on our face, how about you?
Don’t Want to Say Good-Bye — Cut Worms
Despite the retro sound, Cut Worms is a fresh project from formerly Chicago-based musician Max Clarke, now of Brooklyn. Definitely one to watch.
The Seed (2.0) — The Roots, Cody Chesnutt
A catchy modern rap-funk-soul classic from the legendary Roots.
Ram On — Paul McCartney
An early gem from Paul’s first solo years.
Let ’em Say — Lizzo, Caroline Smith
Minneapolis-based artists Lizzo and Caroline Smith collaborated on this upbeat modern soul-pop track that was recently featured in the season 3 premiere of “Broad City.”
Money — The Flying Lizards
A classic in the advertising game.
100 Million — Charlie Hilton
Portland-based Charlie Hilton recently opened for our Chicago favorites Whitney, playing gorgeously hypnotic indie folk-rock.
Dancing Time — The Funkees
Nigerian afro-rock group The Funkees are a hidden gem from the late 1960s.
