Song Recommendations:
“Graceland Too” by Phoebe Bridgers
Pick by Ella Giuffre: Co-Music Director
The song’s slow feel and calming nature is exactly how fall feels.
“Rosyln” by Bon Iver
Pick by Lili Cortes: writer, show host
“Rosyln” reminds me of fall in the Pacific Northwest and warm tea while it rains with a good book.
“Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? Lima Oscar Lima!” by Pennines
Pick by Jamie Day: writer
This song makes me think of fall because the upbeat instrumental gives it a fun, energetic feeling. It reminds me of walking around my neighborhood back home in the cool weather, seeing the leaves change, and hanging out with friends. Its upbeat sound matches the energy I associate with fall.
American Heartbreak by Zach Bryan
Pick by Savannah Ferranti: Co-Marketing Director, show host
Country music makes me think of fall due to the fact that it reminds me of nature. I love to be outside during the fall because of the colorful leaves and the nice weather.
“You’re Gonna Go Far” by Noah Kahan
Pick by Veronica McCree: Event Coordinator, editor, show host
This song makes me feel super warm and reminds me of my mom since I have to go all the way across the country and don’t get to see her for months. Everytime I listen to it it reminds me that this is something that she has always wanted for me and that keeps my head up.
“fine” by Sombr
Pick by Karla Garcia: writer
I love this song’s guitar intro and laid-back atmosphere. Much like autumn, this track is airy, wistful, and comforting!
“we fell in love in october” by Girl in Red
Pick by Katie Whitehead: writer, editor
Mandatory October song. Cute and comfy; it gets me in the mood for some fall love. This song and some cinnamon buns are peak life.
“Nude” by Radiohead
Pick by Katie Whitehead: writer, editor
For the sad fall moments—the ones where you’re somberly pondering your deepest life memories with rain and wet leaves blowing around you. Makes me feel like I’m in a coming of age movie.
“Linger” by The Cranberries
Pick by Cassidy Gordon: Co-Music Director, editor
“Linger” is such a fall song to me. The '90s just makes me think of fall, but Dolores O'Riordan's voice just wraps around you like a warm blanket on a rainy fall day.
“Harvest Moon” by Neil Young
Pick by Kas Batchelor: Senior Editor, writer
“Harvest Moon” reminds me of the leaves changing into a deep red and bright yellow, the sky turning grey, and enjoying a bonfire with my friends. Neil Young’s singing is so comforting and unique; this song surrounds you in all of the moody, fall feelings.
“Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)” by Arcade Fire
Pick by Braeden Pelko: General Manager
It just feels like fall. It makes me want to frolic through a pile of orange leaves and chug apple cider.
Movie and TV Show Recommendations:
Pick by Ella Giuffre: Co-Music Director
Both shows have such great fall fashion and seasonal vibes.
Pick by Savannah Ferranti: Co-Marketing Director, show host
I feel like Gilmore Girls is just the definition of fall. I don’t think it gives any other season.
Pick by Lili Cortes: writer, show host
My absolute favorite movie and my favorite to watch in the fall. The night I come home for thanksgiving break I always watch it with my mom, it's one of my favorite things we do together.
Pick by Jamie Day: writer
“I don’t want to live in a hole anymore.” This movie reminds me of fall because of its warm colors, forests, and changing leaves. It has a cozy but adventurous feeling that makes me think of relaxing fall nights and enjoying the season.
Pick by Veronica McCree: Event Coordinator, editor, show host
Coraline is such a nostalgic movie for me and brings me back to when I was younger. Dead Poets Society is just such a fall movie and is a constant if I want to get into my feelings.
Pick by Katie Whitehead: writer, editor
Dead Poets Society: Gets my creative juices flowing like yassss “oh captain my captain.” It sets the mood for the season and gets me excited to write.
Pick by Karla Garcia: writer
Baby Boom, starring the late Diane Keaton, is one of my favorite movies to watch around November. When J.C.’s busy life in New York is suddenly halted, she goes to Vermont to seek a slower, countryside life. Exploring the true meaning of happiness, this cozy 80s film is a must-watch!
Pick by Cassidy Gordon: Co-Music Director, editor
Over the Garden Wall is the best fall show ever. It takes place on Halloween night and is lighthearted and spooky enough for everyone.
Pick by Kas Batchelor: Senior Editor, writer
If I had to pick one recommendation it would absolutely be Over the Garden Wall. This mini-series is only roughly two hours long which makes it easy to binge watch over and over again. It has the most beautiful animated fall scenery and is able to balance both comedy and horror effortlessly.
Pick by Braeden Pelko: General Manager
Goofy and whimsical, but intensely serious (if you care to dig deeper).
