2015 has been a fantastic year for music, and we’ve been fortunate to feature some great songs by veteran artists and emerging new acts. It’s only fitting that the final Weekend Showcase of the year has familiar names and some new ones people ought to know. And like past Showcases, we’ve spanned the globe for new music. This week’s playlist features music by artists in Canada, England, Finland, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Lithuania, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Sweden, and the USA.
If 2016 is anything like this year, then we’ll have a lot of tough decisions to make in creating a daily and weekly playlists. In the meantime, enjoy the Weekend Showcase December 19th Edition – it’s the final weekly playlist of the year. Look for our mega, mega-playlist around New Year’s Eve, at which time will share some of our favorite singles of 2015.
