The Sound of Summer

Maybe it's the New Yorker in me, but when I stumble upon a song or band that screams summer, I hold onto that sound with all of my might. Dirty Heads is a great example. Their single "Lay Me Down" featuring Rome from Sublime with Rome is an even better example. This "SoCal" Reggae rock band just makes you feel good, despite (or maybe because of) its cheesy pick-up lines like "It's hot outside; let me go swimming in your eyes." And if you love that "Santeria" surfer sound, this will undoubtedly become part of your summer soundtrack. Give this and others from their album Any Port In A Storm a listen, especially "Stand Tall" and their cover of "Paint It Black" by the Rolling Stones.
