Greetings Music Fans,
It’s been quite the ride in 2019. I for one am totally ready for 2020. 2019 brought about some solid dance tunes, but personally, I really loved all the great alternative music I’ve heard, especially from Jaymes Young who is featured twice on this list! Thank you for checking out my tune recaps each month I put them out, and for following along more frequently on thistune.rocks. I hope you discovered a new artist or two. Here’s to another year of top tune recaps.
Love,
_Sam
