Happy Midvinter, y’all. With one week left in the year, I’m finally at peace with my Top 50 Songs list. Listen on Spotify, Apple, YouTube, Amazon, Tidal and Qobuz: lnk.to/X7ZZqoRX

The team at NPR Music just published a different type of “Best Songs of 2023” list. Each song has an accompanying playlist to help listeners discover other artists that they stand a decent chance of digging. It was a lot of work, but we’re proud of it. www.npr.org/2023/12/12/1...

I’m really proud of the work the NPR Music staff put into writing and producing our 50 Best Albums Of 2023 feature. So many “I wish I’d written that!” moments. www.npr.org/2023/12/05/1...

The sun rises in the East, it sets in the West, and the Yankees act like every one of their prospects is a no-doubt guaranteed Hall of Famer. These are the only things you can truly count on. sny.tv/articles/sou...

Chaos Takes The Wheel And I Am A Passenger (Sped Up)

Something I ponder every once in a while: Are artists known by the name their parents gave them more judicious about what they put out in the world?

It’s Bandcamp Friday. Don’t let a few people’s bad decisions stop you from supporting independent musicians today.

All of this GAI talk has me feeling like a Sleaford Mod

Craig Breslow played for the Bobby Valentine team, so when the sky starts falling at some point as it always does in Boston, at least he’ll be able to keep things in perspective.

It’s been a while since I updated my NPR Music playlist. That’s because I’ve been working on a project since January that I wanted to share only after it was completed. I listened to basically every 78 RPM from the 1940s and landed on my favorite 50 songs from each year (with one exception)…

Today is Bob Boilen’s last day at NPR. He’s decided to finally kick back at the age of 70. I can tell you from first-hand experience that the main reason he stuck it out this long is the same reason he started All Songs Considered 23 years ago:

I’m on the Amtrak Northeast Regional, approaching a Manhattan that may or may not have a functional public transit system at the moment. So I’m going to pass the time and shun the anxiety by sharing my favorite tracks of the first 9 months of 2023.

Meanwhile, in Oklahoma… www.publicradiotulsa.org/local-region...

I still somehow have 20 songs left in this new DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ album

New Field School EP dropped. This song has a jangly 69 Love Songs vibe that I will never tire of.

I Think You're Amazing, Grace, by Field Schoolfieldschool.bandcamp.com from the album A Familiar Fate EP

It’s such a euphoric feeling when you fall in love with the advanced singles, finally get your hands on the album and find out the first two tracks are EVEN BETTER.
