WFSE Subverse playlist — week of Feb. 1

“As long as I’m in the art world and I’m making art, I’m going to be happy.”

This is a deep-dive list. A list filled with titles that will impress your relatives when you mention them around the roast beast (but do not actually gather, of course, because of the pandemic).

“Therapeutic” is the perfect word to describe “Is Enough.” The mellow beats and calm vocals provide a relaxing backdrop for a study night or a Sunday stroll.

“For most of us musicians, it’s not just the job. It’s our whole identity, it’s our whole world, it’s an extension of our personality.”

Starting in the local area, the Erie Philharmonic will continue their annual Holiday Concert Tour of Homes. The series gives tours of decorated homes, along with Philharmonic performances in that same location.

“Late nights spent creating art will go on. Reflections of fall, in all of its splendor, will be seen in the ripples of Edinboro Lake in the years ahead. And yes, the sounds of bagpipes will linger.”
