hello dear readers! 🙂 this is kelly ann from the flowerchild dwelling, and the totally awesome and always fabulous bridget asked me to guest post today. how could i say no to her? never. today i wanted to share one of my VERY favourite music albums of the year with you all!
this is sarah jaffe. she. is. amazing. i heard her song clementine on a random playlist earlier this year and i got so excited! not only because i adore the name clementine (is that weird? probably), but because the song was so. so. so. good. i was stoked and listened to the song four times in a row, immediately went and downloaded her album suburban nature, and did a little happy dance – all in the span of about ten minutes. (i get really giddy about finding new music, if you couldn’t tell. it’s ridiculous) she definitely has a folk vibe, but with an edge. and isn’t it awesome when there isn’t one song on an album that you dislike, they’re all just so phenomenal? that’s this album, for sure. it’s without a doubt one of my favourite albums this year. and i’m the worst at picking favourites. but i love this album so dang much. it’s great to listen to when you’re sad, quiet, content, on a road trip, on a rainy day, while lying in a grassy field, or drinking coffee, or journaling…. i also love listening to this when i’m painting or doing something else creative. i’m totally going to stop now and just let you listen. 🙂
here’s a peek into suburban nature:

she also has a previously released EP that is quite fabulous. basically anything she does is great!
