The year (so far) in Music: 2016

Thought I’d throw in a quick recap of 2016 for you today. So far, I’d say that music in 2016 has not been that strong. I generally listen to music in the periphery, so you won’t have the latest jams from Kanye coming at you. Some albums have been disappointing to me – I want to like the Mitski album, but just can’t get into it – am I getting too old for some music?

What I like I generally love, so there have definitely been some strong albums released this year, such as Santigold, P.J. Harvey, Haley Bonar, and Damien Jurado. Of course, one of the best to come out this year is Blackstar by David Bowie – hard to separate the music from the reality, which is probably how he planned it.

So let’s listen to some great music released this year from the Kills, Esperanza Spalding, Santigold, Beth Orton, P.J. Harvey, Your Friend, Wild Nothing, Wild Beasts, Bleached, Bob Mould, Haley Bonar, Thao & the Get Down Stay Down, Damien Jurado, and David Bowie.
