“Your summer just got a little groovier,” says The White House’s latest blog post.  And no, it isn’t because your least favorite candidate (or all of them) dropped out of the presidential race. Your summer is groovier because President Obama just offered his constituents two new Spotify playlists! The White House recently launched their own Spotify channel, and the first two playlists were compiled by none other than the Commander in Chief.   President Obama added artists such as Florence + The Machine, Coldplay, The Lumineers, and Brandi Carlile to his list. And of course, he added all-time favs like Beyonce, The Temptations, Ray Charles, and The Rolling Stones. The first #POTUS playlist is for daytime listening.  That’s where Bob Dylan, Bob Marley, and The Temptations come in. Playlist number two is for evening music such as songs by Frank Sinatra, Nina Simone, and Miles Davis. The White House has been active in the music industry.  In addition to its new Spotify channel, top-notch artists have performed at The White House in Performance series. Over the past few years, the series has brought stars ranging from Paul McCartney to Jennifer Hudson to The White House.
