Pretty Sweet

I spent a long time trying to put this week’s playlist into some kind of order that would flow well but, although every song is great on its own, they just don’t fit together nicely. So, prepare for the most boring way to expose yourself to 90 minutes of great new music: alphabetically.

The sequencing might be spiritless, but the tracks are tremendous—this week, they’re by Jeremie Albino, Clea Anaïs, Rich Aucoin, Double Rider, GRAE, Jasmyn, The Jins, Joshanda, Braden Lam, Long Range Hustle, MONOWHALES, The Silkstones, Spirit Josh, Surf Dads, Drew Thomson, TOPS, Roye Trout, Nathan Turner, Ken Yates, and The Zolas!
