A lot of today's millennial generation grew up listening to bands their parents liked, which probably included some classic rock, The Beatles, maybe some Billy Joel and Elton John. But now that some of them are having little ones of their own, what are they playing around the house? Starbucks has released an album that is directed to provide tunes for the newest young ones called Music for Little Hipsters.
The 14-track compilation is now available at Starbucks locations and according to the album's description, it is shooting for "the sweet spot where cool kids and music-loving grownups crisscross and get crazy." The collection is said to be full of "songs that parents may recognize and children will love."
The comp includes songs from Devo, The Beach Boys, Booker T. and the MG's, Elizabeth Mitchell and Lisa Loeb, I'm From Barcelona, Great Lake Swimmers and Franck Monnet. The album clearly isn't just a collection of songs from today, but in true hipster fashion, it takes some influence from the past.
