Hello, year.
We’ve always loved the first playlist of the year. As any music curator will tell you, compiling year-end lists and trying to sift through all the great songs you’ve heard at the end of the year can get a little overwhelming. But every year, that holiday break and the promise of the new year gets us excited to dig for new musical treasures again. We like to start gentle, a little pensive, and more lo-fi. That’s what today’s playlist, First Light, is all about. New bands, new versions of tracks we love, and the pure joy of new sounds in general. So open back up your listening ears and ease into the great music to come for 2024 with this patient collection of tunes. Watch out for hints of sparkle!
