Stop. Breathe.

As we inundate you with new material, album reviews, concert information and the like, we rarely ever get the chance to show you what’s been hot on our playlists lately. You hear a track during the picks of the week for our radio show but that doesn’t exactly suffice, in my opinion. So I’ll try to come up with more playlists, throughout our usual posting, of music I am liking, have liked, and am just plain listening to. Besides, everyone loves a good (yep, I can’t go wrong) mix.
