Queen City Sounds Best of 2024 – Queen City Sounds and Art

This is the much belated year-end-best list that Brian Tallman and I have been doing since 2024 but these picks are of course for 2024. Not definitive, just a sampling that is manageable and it’s a deep dive in various recording situations so the sound will switch up some. Brian is an attentive music fan near my own age who still gets into new music with great enthusiasm and while we share a love of post-punk, shoegaze and some mainstream pop our tastes different enough that hopefully this conversation and selections are interesting. The Spotify playlists are linked below. I would prefer to use a different platform but it’s the one for now that is easy enough for listeners to plug into and hear all the songs without the need for a lot of formatting.
