Goodness, it’s brunch week. Audrey, Kaitlyn, Robin, Lydia and I teamed up to make you a brunch-length playlist to fulfill your wildest dreams. We’ve got a wide spectrum of brunch music here, from Simon and Garfunkel to STRFKR to M.I.A. to the Mountain Goats. It’s 2.5 hours of tunes, because we know how long brunch takes. This should cover your journey, from sweet to savory and back again.

Want to suggest a playlist theme? Hit Stef up and someone on the team might make it for you.
This playlist is so amazing! Rilo Kiley, The Mountain Goats, MIA, The Tallest Man on Earth, Frank Ocean, Tune-Yards, CCR, Talking Heads- this has so many of my favorite artists!
Plus, Chance the Rapper’s Arthur theme song cover is one of my current favorite things!
Yes! This playlist rules.
since I’ve only heard of like 3 of these songs bc yo no se. I’m going to listen to each one right now. also, what’s the official name of an egg cooked inside the hole in a piece of bread?
The jury is really out on this one. We call them “egg in a frame” in my family, but I’ve also heard “egg in a hole” and “one-eyed jack,” and I’m curious about what other people think.
“Egg in a basket” is another one.
I seriously thought you made that up until I read Maddie’s response.
It’s really a serious controversy.
I think we should all make an egg inside of a piece of toast on the weekend to make the distance not so bad.
i highly approve of any playlist with big star on it.
