Top 50 of 2021 – What A Year!

What a decade this year has been! Despite everything going on in the world, the one thing we could count on in 2021 was great new music. Thank you so much for all the bands who put out tunes this year, toured this year, and made 2021 a little bit better. Here’s to a stellar 2022 and hopefully a full-on return for live music. Stay healthy, stay sane, and stay curious for new music. Thank you so much to you for listening at any point this year. As a gift, here is a look at the biggest songs of the year, and check out the tunes on air tonight for New Year’s Eve and again tomorrow, all day, for New Year’s Day!
