I want to share a playlist I made for a band I discovered last year, #AJR

Three brothers who are sometimes called theater rock or theater alt. I just love how they play with sounds, genres, and topics

Ryan (keyboardist, writer, and music producer) has synesthesia, which he has discussed in interviews as to how it affects their process

This isn’t meant as some definitive playlist, just the songs I’m drawn to. Maybe you’ll like some too #music

Turning Out Pt iii

"Man, I wish we were 85
The rest of our life wouldn't sound so scary"

"don't overthink it
One day at a time, kid
Add up the days
You got someone to do life with
Love isn't big, kid
It's little and quiet
Let's do today
I think you'll turn out to like it"

The track Inertia feel like they are looking in my brain on some lines.
"(Inertia) now, you're not in love anymore
But you'll stick it out for, like, 20 years more"
Ouch, thankfully this doesn't apply for me.

"An object in motion, don't ask where I'm going
'Cause where I am goin' is right where I am (oh, man)"
So, so difficult to get out of my ruts and change.

"I was gonna save the planet, but today I got plans
I guess this is just what I am"

My eldest daughter introduced me to AJR yesterday and their album The Maybe Man (link is for the explicit version):

Not music I would have found on my own but I'm glad to have it in my life thanks to her. The lyrics are definitely relatable and the music is very good.

Per Wikipedia it is classified as:
Alt pop
electropop
indie pop
orchestral pop

How one pop band is trying to turn concertgoers into #climate activists

"According to Planet Reimagined, around 12,000 audience members participated in climate-related civic actions during #AJR's tour, such as signing petitions, sending letters, leaving voicemails, registering to vote, making donations and volunteering. An additional 10,500 scanned QR codes and signed up for emails to learn more about an issue."
