In honor of Investigation Discovery’s Deadly Sins June 30th premiere of Season 5 hosted by Darren Kavinoky, I’ve compiled the Sinful Summer Playlist with 20 new songs to help you pass the wait with a smile.
NOTE: No actual sinning is encouraged by this playlist.
These 20 tracks will fuel your summer soundtrack and are sure to invigorate your outdated song list.
Summer Music
Summertime requires you to have music on hand for every occasion; riding in the car with the top down, a long day surfing at the beach, road-tripping on vacation, hot summer night dancing, campfire chilling, first kiss summer love, and the inevitable end of summer goodbye.
Every year we wait to see which song will take over the radio waves and become the undisputed Song of the Summer. My money is on one of these hot releases.
Listen to all these songs via Darren Kavinoky’s Sinful Summer Playlist on Spotify.
