Here we are, the first blog post of 2018! How was everyone’s holiday break? Good? Good! Seeing as how it’s also the first Thursday of the month, that also means that this hear blog post is also the first web update of the year. But before we get to that, we have some housekeeping. As almost none of you remembered, we had a #tedontheshelf photo contest and the winner is…
drum roll please…
Laura Katz! Our pal Laura is on something of a roll, as this might be her 4th straight title (I know she shared the honors at least one year with Dawn Sutter Madell). So three cheers for Laura! Laura, your prize has been ordered and you will get it before too long.
Now, on with the show! (assuming you consider a web update a “show”) We are starting 2018 out right with some killer tunes. There’s the surprise New Year’s baby that is Jeff Rosenstock’s latest, some gorgeous songcraft from Jesse Marchant, some energetic post-punk from Shopping, and some killer ‘70s-sounding rock ’n’ roll courtesy of Dommengang. So dig in HERE to check these out as well as more from this, the first 8% of the year. Enjoy!
