[2026] A Collection of Classic Western Songs to Listen to in June

June Is as Cold as DecemberThe Everly Brothers

June Is as Cold as December

The Everly Brothers were a duo of brothers, Don and Phil Everly, who were active in the early 1960s.

Their exquisite harmonies, created by their two voices, are especially striking.

This song is about an attractive, love-shy girl who was wounded in June.

You can sense how deeply she was hurt—so much so that a wounded June feels as cold as December.

ProceedThe Roots

The Roots – Proceed (Official Music Video)

The Roots are highly acclaimed in the 1990s American hip-hop scene for their originality and innovation.

Their sound, which skillfully weaves in elements of jazz, made a major impact on the music landscape of the time.

“Proceed,” included on the album Do You Want More?!!!??! released in January 1995, can be considered one of the standout tracks that distills their musical identity.

Lyrically, it conveys a positive message, and its themes of self-expression and growth reflect a strong determination toward artistic progress—an impressive aspect.

It’s a track that feels perfect for June, a rainy season, and one you’ll want to sit with and listen to closely.

Tyler Shaw – With You (Wedding Version)

Tyler Shaw is a Canadian actor and singer.

After winning the Canadian music competition show ‘MuchMusic Coca-Cola Covers Contest 2012,’ he made his debut that same year with the single ‘Kiss Goodnight,’ proving himself a talented artist.

His 2018 single ‘With You,’ rearranged as a wedding-version music video titled ‘With You (Wedding Version),’ is the perfect number for June.

It’s a moderately pop yet calm ballad, so if you’re planning a June wedding, this track would be a great choice to play at the ceremony!

The Beach Boys were a legendary rock band based in California, USA.

I recommend listening while cruising along the coast on a drive.
