Category: Playlists

This really is my favorite time of the year.  I like the cooler temps, the fall colors, and what has traditionally been one of the best times of the year for new music releases.  I haven’t seen much in the past couple of weeks – but I expect that will change as we get deeper into October and November, when more releases come out in front of the holiday shopping season – and from those bands seeking to make it onto festival stages in the next year.

(D) = album debut = first time a track from an album has been played on the show.
