Episode 9: Best of Alt-Country (Americana, folk, etc.) Released Thus Far in 2023
We're 1/2 way through 2023 and excited to share tunes from some of our favorite albums released thus far. Some of these will be critically acclaimed and some are just too fun to pass by.
We also asked our listeners to chime in with their favorites and if you responded to our poll, we may be playing your suggestions.
Have we heard everything? No. Did we forget something? Probably. Is music subjective? Absolutely.
All we're saying is these albums have brought us a ton of joy this year.
