September Playlist: Back to School (Part II)

While American beach season and the ability to unapologetically wear white have effectively passed, the spirit of summer lives on in September with our Monthly France Rocks Playlist, “Back to School (Part II)” which celebrates the wide variety of French-made music touring the US this month. (You may remember our playlist from last year’s Rentrée, or “back to school” here)

Warm up to this September mix of  electro (Rone, Kartell, Zimmer, Madeon, Bambounou, Klingande), contemporary jazz (Shai Maestro, Kellylee Evans, Cecile McLorin Salvant), metal (Svart Crown),and pop/rock/everything-in-between (EDH, Meshell Ndegeocello, Alex June, Stromae, Soko).
