Albums of the Year 2023

Hello all! It’s been a while. There was truly an overwhelming amount of amazing music that came out this year. I am so grateful to all the artists, labels, and publicists for their patience and perseverance in this exceedingly difficult landscape. I feel like I missed so much and I know there are some amazing records that weren’t in my Bandcamp account I didn’t include (lookin’ at you Andre 3000.) All that said, back in the day I used to post a top 10 so a long list (50+) ain’t bad. Here are some amazing records I enjoyed this year. Blessings and peace to all.

And finally, a huge thank you to everyone who participated in making this compilation a reality. The artists who contributed, everyone who wrote about it or played it on their show (Aquarium Drunkard, Folk Radio UK, Raven Sings the Blues, Record Crates United, Old Rookie, The Slow Music Movement, the Ambient Country Podcast, Discologist, Foxy Digitalis, Pacific Notions, etc.), and everyone who purchased it. What a dream come true, and for an important cause. Let’s do it again next year!
