You may return to your regular dad-rock programming below.
The 2016 election is pretty-damn absurd, and as Creative Loafing Tampa readies it's Election Issue (on stands tomorrow!) we're delighted to see that our favorite VP hopeful/dad rock ambassador, Tim Kaine, shared a Spotify playlist featuring his favorite songs yesterday.
We repeat: it's 2016 and a VP candidate has released a 17-track Spotify playlist of his favorite songs. Welcome to the future.
Billboard points out that Kaine, 58, is a little musical himself (the harmonica counts, people), and that he's got some surprising picks (Alabama Shakes, Lucy Dacus) to go along with stuff we were kind of expecting (Dylan, Springsteen). What's really cool is how much daddy-o likes The Replacements.
Listen to the playlist below and subscribe to it here. Read our full election coverage here (link to go live when issue drops). Watch Kaine talk about police reform, systematic racism and education with Pusha T here.
