Morning Grind 7.13.16
FAMOUS FORECAST
We were lucky for a week or so but the rain is creeping back into the District. Expect scattered showers, insane humidity, and temperatures as high as 90 degrees.
WEDNESDAY JAM
Brought to you by Katherine Richardson of NJI Media.
Maggie Rogers, a recent NYU graduate, became a viral hit after a video of her playing a song for producer Pharrell Williams surfaced. The video’s got more than two million views and shows a stunned Pharrell, completely mesmerized by the 21-year-old’s indie folk/electronic hybrid, “Alaska.” After months of mastering, Maggie has finally released the song, and it was definitely worth the wait. Check it out — it’ll certainly make this dreary Wednesday a little happier.
