Many of you may have seen that the weather this weekend is going to be less than balmy. Appropriately, our playlist this weekend has been created just for you, as the soundtrack to your hibernation.

Snuggle into your favorite pajamas, wrap up in all of your best blankets, and put this on. We'll be here to keep you warm and keep you company.

Songs to note:

Banks just released her first album last month, and if you like this track, there are plenty more where that came from.

For all you Childish Gambino fans, here is a little-heard freestyle over Drake's "Pound Cake". Gambino just released a new mixtape, "Kauai Mixtape", available here.

The song will be a surprise jam. I'm going to let you figure that one out on your own!

Daniela Andrade's cover of "Latch" puts a beautiful new spin a song that's been blaring from just about every speaker for a month or so now.

And finally, we close with a song to remind us that awful weather is never forever. A sentiment to hold tight to come the long Chicago winter.
