Flying High Again: Weekend Playlist by Super Doppler

by | Sep 6, 2019 | MUSIC

Every Friday night, RVA Mag brings you a lovely and wonderful playlist curated by Virginia’s most influential artists, musicians, and institutions.

This time around we’ve got an overstuffed selection of bangers from the men of Super Doppler, who recently released a self-titled LP full of the psychedelic power pop they’ve been regaling the Mid-Atlantic (and beyond) with for years now. Their playlist is sure to keep your spirits high throughout this hurricane-threatened weekend, giving us plenty of folk, psychedelic rock, garage punk, funk, alt-rock, yacht rock, metal, and more! You’ll be able to keep this one rolling for hours, and you’ll have a smile on your face the whole time.

Take wing, Virginia.
