Howl Month of Love Playlists

Sounds | Rebecca Proch

This February, influenced by the Valentine’s Day wave of flowers and chocolates in our local grocery store aisles, we at the Howl asked you to share your musical confessions of romance. Here were your answers: from love songs that make you feel warm to tunes you could potentially blast crying in the car. And as an extra treat, we compiled from these for you a playlist with all the feels of a new romance’s beginning and (as things go) its end. Without further ado, here are your takes!
