The best albums and songs of 2024... according to little old me!!
Every year I love to review the year in music... and share it with family, friends and the listeners of CKCU-FM. This music is the soundtrack of my 2024 and whenever I hear these songs they will transport me back to the past year - the same way that I'm Not In Love by 10CC takes me back to 1975, 54-40's Take My Hand brings me back to 1986 and Tubthumping by Chumbawamba reminds me of my wife and I driving our kids to ski races back in 1997... and on and on it goes.
Hope you enjoy this and perhaps find some great songs you didn't know.
I'm very happy to include some great music by local artists fanclubwallet, Backseat Dragon, Kellylee Evans and Dystoh.... as well as some former Ottawa residents Leif Vollebekk and Michael Feuerstack.
Support independent music in any way that you can!
