Spotify and LoveShackFancy Bring Galentine’s Glam to NYC, Featuring Special Performance by Joshua Basset
Yesterday, Spotify and LoveShackFancy hosted a Galentine’s and Gents Lunch at the Doubles Club during New York Fashion Week, bringing guests together for an afternoon of music, fashion, and friendship.
Alongside lunch and cocktails, attendees enjoyed a special acoustic performance by Joshua Bassett. The setlist included “Blue,” “i’m sorry,” “Different,” and a heartfelt cover of The Beatles’ classic “Till There Was You.”

Dustee Jenkins, Spotify’s Chief Public Affairs Officer, and Rebecca Hessel Cohen, LoveShackFancy’s Creative Director and Founder, joined the celebration alongside Nia Sioux, Georgia Hasserati, Joy Woods, Ashby Gentry, Karan Brar, Ava Dash, and others, all dressed in Galantine’s glam.

Love, friendship, and playlists
Love is in the air, and all over Spotify. Around the world, listeners have created more than 2.6 million Valentine’s Day playlists to date, and over 108 million playlists dedicated specifically to love. This year, “Kiss Me” by Sixpence None the Richer has been the most popular track added to these swoon‑worthy collections.
But friendship is getting its spotlight too. There are more than 150,000 Galentine’s-themed playlists on Spotify, up 390% since 2022.
And on Valentine’s Day last year, listeners streamed more Blend playlists than any other day in the previous 12 months, proving that sharing music is one of the sweetest gifts.
