2020 was a year to remember, and a year to forget! While each passing month felt like days and weeks and months and years, the music continued to pour out, album after album.

Dan’s DJ Pick of The Week! This week’s DJ pick comes from Melbourne band, Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever. The single “She’s There” comes from their brand new second studio album, Sideways to New Italy. This sophomore album has the same beloved soft punk/rock sound of their first, but with a grittier feel. The band is composed of three alternating singer/guitarist Tom Russo, Fran Keaney, Joe White, alongside bassist Joe Russo and drummer Marcel Tussie.

The Local Natives Press Photo Lt. Dan’s DJ Pick of the Week! The Local Natives have released a new 2020 rendition of their 2016 hit “Dark Days.” This new release of the song features beloved vocalist Sylvan Esso. The song is about growing up in Southern California and navigating your life and trying to have fun as a teenager, while also carrying religious guilt. The band was able to perform the song live with Sylvan Esso on Jimmy Kimmel during the last pre corona days.
