Cecilia:
“For me, summer has always been associated with country music. Iced tea, flip flops, and some good old Randy Travis. But, I’m also Bad Bunny’s #1 fan and what screams summer more than some Reggaeton on the beach. Like, come on! (Shoutout to A-level Spanish).”

Erica:
“I always associate summer with spending time at my grandparents’ house in Italy: dried figs on the terrace, playing cards at ten o’clock and ALSO listening to great music whilst driving to the beach. That’s why I picked some classic tunes to chill out this summer, like ‘Summertime’ by The Sundays – always a hit for this time of year if you ask me!”
