I have been really excited about music this year. My favorite band, Acceptance, reunited after more than a decade of being disbanded and released a new album, I found several new artists to add to my library, and I started this music blog. Thank you for taking the time to read about the music I love. I have enjoyed sharing these tunes with you. 
The artist that really stands out to me above all others this year is Irish singer/songwriter Dermot Kennedy. You can read my original blog post about him here. I have not come across music like this in a while. You know, the kind of music you talk about daily (I think my friends are starting to avoid me). The kind of music you tell everyone about (I would shout it from a mountain top if I could). The kind of music that makes you feel alive in the best possible way (it’s literally like magic). In all honesty, my standard of quality music has changed since I first heard him a few months ago while washing dishes (yes, hand washing dishes) after a long day. If you do nothing else before the end of 2017, go listen to his music. It will take you on an emotional journey leaving you craving more.
Here are some other artists I have had on repeat during 2017.
- Acceptance – Colliding By Design Album
- Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness – Zombies On Broadway Album
- Harry Styles – Harry Styles Album
- Dean Lewis – Same Kind of Different EP
- The Rocket Summer – Gone Too Long Single
Thank you again for taking time out of your day to read these posts. It means a lot to me. I hope 2018 brings you much happiness.
