* Editor’s Note: The PorchDrinking Playlist will feature weekly post to help aid in your porch drinking sessions. Some like the one today, will be themed toward specific genres.

Going forward, please visit us on Facebook, Twitter or post comments to recommend songs we should use in our next installment. We’re always happy to receive feedback.

Our porch has heard it’s share of musical genres during our recurring porch drinking sessions. But the one constant we typically fall back on, is some good old fashioned folk. We’re talkin’ bluegrass-y, pickin’ and grinnin’, banjos, harmonicas, mandolins and crazy awesome vocals. I’ve compiled a list of just those kind of folk jams to accompany your next PorchDrink. Summer isn’t quite over yet so kick back, relax, and folk around a bit. Let me know what you think and whether there are any others we should add to the next compilation! P.S. both the Avett Brothers and Mumford and Sons will be releasing new albums in September … before we get to the playlist here’s a preview of the Avett Brothers’ upcoming single Live and Die.
