Another week, another weekly playlist.

Just a quick weekly round-up. It’s been a hard week and this blog is not my priority at the moment. I know I missed a lot of stuff, but here are the songs/albums that carried me through this week.

New albums from Mount Eerie with Julie Doiron, Sarah Lee Langford, Jerry Leger, Josienne Clarke, Dan Martin, Beautiful Dudes, Kate Davis, Fruition and The Revelers. Plus a compilation from Bloodshot Records and EPs from Lucy Dacus, Worry Dolls. A couple of slightly older albums from Under Violet and Julia Haltigan also make a first appearance on the playlist.

The Finland section contains new singles from Mara Balls and half Finnish Astral Brain from Stockholm, Sweden.

A bunch of great international singles from Twain (how did I miss this one earlier), Bart Budwig, Gabriel Birnbaum, Son Little and so forth.

That’s all for this week. Love love love.

Playlist link

Oh and do buy the vinyl/cd/download. Spotify and other streaming services are perfect for these introductory purposes, but try to buy at least the music that matter the most to you

If you are looking this after a week has gone, the embedded Spotify will show the latest playlist. I’ll just update the same playlist because a) if someone wants to follow it, they can just follow that one list and will get a new set of songs each Sunday b) so that I don’t have a trillion of different playlists on my Spotify account.

Another week, another weekly playlist.

Approaching the end of the year, but there’s still lots of great music to come. So let’s wait at least for another month before starting to compile the year-end lists. The new albums from long-time favourite Vetiver and quite new favourite Erin Enderlin were probably my most anticipated releases this week, but that’s just a tiny fraction of all the action. There’s new albums from Ags Connolly, Wished Bone, Itasca, Matthew Ryan (well not sure does this count as a proper album, but it compiles his 2019 EPs together and it’s wonderful), Michael Kiwanuka, Leif Vollebekk, Jeffrey Lewis & Voltage, The Deer, Bobby Hawk, Piney Gir, Signe Marie Rustad and Grace Cummings. Plus a great EP from Flora Hibberd.

The new Finnish albums featured on this playlist are from Lehtojärven Hirvenpää and STINAKO. Plus Maustetytöt reappears with another song. There’s also wonderful new singles from Laura Moisio, Arppa, Hot Heros & Janne Laurila and Spring Teeth. I missed the first Arppa single earlier in the year, so make sure you check it out too if you like this second single. And thanks to Mikko for the introduction.

The international single of the week is the new one from The Innocence Mission. Love it so much. Other big ones were the new one from Quivers, Hallelujah The Hills and the surprise return single from the great A Girl Called Eddy. Of course everything else would also be worth of a namedrop.

That’s all for this week. Love love love.
