April was an eventful month on the site. The start of baseball and the NFL Draft really boosted the traffic. I want to thank everyone for reading.

We are very pleased with our May playlist. The list is filled with familiar bands that graced past playlists, but there are some first-timers on there as well.

I always keep an ear out for new music. I love discovering new bands/songs, it’s a habit from my days as a music journalist. Even though this is mostly a sports blog, I still add quite a bit of music and pop culture content. Keep sending me tracks via email or Twitter.

March went by pretty fast. We had a ton of new content up last month and are very pleased with the response. April will be busy as well with baseball starting up.

We found some awesome tracks for your ears this month. All but one of the tracks have been released in the last month or two. The one older track is a song by FARTBARF (yes, a real band name). It’s just amazing and I never heard it before.

March is always a huge month for us on the site. We post a preview for every MLB team before Opening Day and also cover nearly every early round game before the NCAA Tournament tips off later this month.

If you live in the United States, you may be having trouble getting your mind off politics. There is a lot of stuff going on in the news everyday and nearly every headline makes a person blood boil. I try to avoid talking politics on this site, but I think we all knows what (and who) I’m talking about.

While you’re out there protesting and showing a certain portion of the population that we are still here, here’s some new music to keep up your spirits.

It’s a new year and it’s cold as hell outside. It took me a longer time than usual to put together this month’s hipster music playlist. I used up a lot of my extra cache of tracks in last month’s playlist. Bands aren’t too keen on releasing new stuff in late-December and January.

We post a hipster music playlist (almost) every month here on America’s White Boy. We looked through all of this year’s playlists and picked the best 20 tracks.

There was something we noticed while compiling this list. It was a strong year for female vocalists. Warpaint, eskimeaux, Phantogram and Sleigh Bells all put out some great music. I also need to give props to the guys, since Kishi Bashi and Grouplove released two of the best albums of the year. I actually had to put two Grouplove tracks on this playlist.

It’s almost time for Hipster Santa to ride his vintage Schwinn around the world to deliver record players and typewriters to all the good boys and girls.

December’s playlist is filled with new songs from all across the indie music genre. A few tracks even have an awesome music video. I was surprised to see Susan Sarandon appear in Justice’s new video for “Fire.”

Even though traditional music retail stores are all but dead, musicians still try to release new albums before the holiday shopping season. Some really good albums are hitting iTunes as we speak.

This month’s playlist is once again filled with many bands that we’ve profiled before, with some new bands thrown in the mix.

I love Autumn. You no longer get swamp ass just stepping outside and bands release a ton of stuff this time of year.

This month’s playlist is filled with bands that we’ve profiled before, but this time with brand new material. This is almost like an All-Star edition of the playlist.

We wanted to thank our readers by SUPER-SIZING this month’s Hipster Music Playlist. Instead of the usual 20 tracks, we added an extra five more. We just found a lot of awesome music this month and instead of holding over a bunch of songs for October, we decided to add them to this month’s playlist.

We wanted to make the Fourth of July a little extra special, so we held off our monthly Hipster Music Playlist until the holiday.

This month’s playlist is a mixture of new bands and established bands that recently put out new music we love. I was a little too excited to see Hot Hot Heat come out with a new album.

I apologize that it has been a few months since I posted a Hipster Music Playlist. I’ve been finding a lot of good music lately, but not quite enough to put out a list of 15 to 20 songs every month. I hope to keep churning these out every month from now on.
