Weekend Frequency Vol. 12 | Heartbreak Hymns, Glamour Grit, and Pop Noir Playlist by Deau Eyes

by | May 23, 2025 | AMERICANA & BLUES, ELECTRONIC & EXPERIMENTAL, MUSIC, ROCK & INDIE, WEEKEND PLAYLIST

Richmond gets it. More than any other city in Virginia. So here’s your Weekend Frequency, your weekly reader-curated playlist, built for the city, by the city.

This week’s playlist comes from Deau Eyes.

“Here are some songs I’m vibing to now and songs that have pushed me forward into who I am as an artist. Most of these are on recent rotation as I prep for a full summer season of shows. Let your hair down and enjoy!”

Come see Deau Eyes with Andy Thomas and Prabir Trio on June 4th at Sunset Soundcheck at Allianz Amphitheater.

Editor’s NoteWe want to hear what you’ve been listening to. Drop us a line at  hello@rvamag.com with Weekend Frequency in the subject line to curate your own RVA Mag playlist.

Weekend Frequency is part revival and part continuation of our RVA Mag Weekend Playlists, which we curated before the world flipped upside down in 2020. Feel free to dig through our entire archive of 100+ playlists here.
