Memorial Day is a time to pause, give thanks to all those who have served our country, and probably play a game of washers or bags or whatever. It’s also a time to celebrate the unofficial beginning of summer. Summer! Finally! Is there anything better than summer in Milwaukee? A big honking list of Milwaukee summer festivals says “NO.”
Anyway, like most of you, we’re taking the day off. But that doesn’t mean we’re leaving you high and dry. Below you’ll find a 20-song playlist of some of our favorite Milwaukee music of 2015, perfect for scoring you beginning-of-summer/Memorial Day festivities. Enjoy, Milwaukee, and we’ll see you tomorrow.
