Favoriting January 3, 2017: New year, new location: my first show on the Give The Drummer Radio Stream, woot! Celebrating with a radio roundup of some of my favorite music from 2016.

This is NOT a "Best of 2016" collection; this is simply a passel of songs and artists which caught my attention and demanded repeated listenings. They are in no particular order, not ranked, and certainly not a complete picture of everything I enjoyed in the past 12 months. This roundup also has no compilations and no reissues of old material, because otherwise I'd be here spinning for you all ding-dong day. Happy new year, and enjoy!
