The less said about this year the better. But at least we were blessed with some great music, with established indie musicians continuing to produce quality content, and new voices entering the fray too. Here’s our rundown of some of our favourite tracks from 2020. We missed a load of amazing music, so tell us how stupid we are and who we need to be looking out for next year. This is in no particular order.

Thanks for reading, and hope you like the list. If you heard something and loved it, do let the artists know on social media, I’m sure they’d love to hear from you!
I wish I had time to do a write up on each track but unfortunately not able to this year. Here’s to a better 2021, stay safe, and keep listening and creating. Love, Mosiki.
