If you’re anything like me right now, then chances are you’re probably feeling a little rough. I know a lot of people turn to movies and games when they’re feeling particularly down. But I find that if there’s one thing to get me through life, during both the good and the bad, it’s music. The … More 5 Songs to Get You Through Rough Times
Ah, 2015. What a year you were. There were so many good things about you, and some not so good things. But we are not here to dwell on the bad. As 2015 draws to a close and we welcome 2016 with open arms, I’m going to look back on what I thought were the … More The Best of 2015: Bits by Brereton Edition
