Today is the last day to check out this week's Featured Friday Playlist. We will have a new list shortly after midnight or maybe a little later if I fall asleep before midnight.
I have been really proud of these lists and the diversity of the music from all over the world. It is fun to hear the mix of music. I am grateful to get to do this and to get the positive feedback I receive. Thanks to the artists and publicists who send me music. I get a lot of e-mails, but I will never complain about that.
It is time to recap the final six songs from this week's playlist... Thanks to everyone who is following. We will have a brand new playlist tomorrow (possibly just after midnight)
26. "Back 'till I'm Gone" by Leon Majcen
Title track of the new album from NYC by way of Tampa singer-songwriter Leon Majcen. I really dig the sound of his music and I especially like his rich vocals. He donated all of the proceeds from the pre-sale of his album to the Southern Poverty Law Center - who are dedicated to tracking and identifying hate groups.27. "Reawakened 2020" by Patrick Ames
A powerful re-imagining of a song that was originally written on inauguration day 2017. A stirring call to action - with that action being to vote.28. "Oyo" by Kids Love Surf
A duo that came together during quarantine from the southern coast of England. Poppy electronic sounds - I dig it.29. "Any Kind of Angel" by Jenny Reynolds
Long time Austin-based singer-songwriter Jenny Reynolds with the title track from her brand new album which was produced by Mark Hallman and Andre Moran. The album features Jaimee Harris, Betty Soo and more. This is a wonderful album, and a great addition to this week's playlist.30. "More Than Heaven" by Marina Matiss
Next, we have a brand new single from Barcelona based singer-songwriter Marina Matiss. Lovely music. Matiss speaks eight different languages. Her next single is going to sung in Spanish.31. "Kelpius" by Sylvette
Last, but certainly not least, we have the new single from 5-piece art rock band Slyvette - who are from Manchester. The single was produced by Phil Cunningham (New Order) and his Bad Lieutenant band mate Jake Evans. A delightful change of pace and a great ending to this expansive and diverse playlist.
