11-20

As we near the top ten, a reminder that I compile this list based on album airplay on the Morning Show. This tells the story of KEXP as well, we play what we love, we love what we play. We hope you do as well clearly or we'd shut down tomorrow.

The Barry Can't Swim record is amazing, somewhere between a Moby and a DJ Shadow record, Big Thief wrote some of the prettiest songs of the year, the Anna Von Hausswolff was a stunner and the amount of positive feedback I got was over the top for that record. NoSo's song "Nara" fueled my play of that album, so good. My friends The Lumineers show up because they should always show up! Oh and don't sleep on that Seattle artist "Sea Lemon". Super good!
