Weekend Showcase 2.18

Another busy week has passed us filled with some great new music. If you missed it because you were pre-occupied spinning Radiohead’s A Moon Shaped Pool, the Weekend Showcase 2.18 edition will help you catch up.

For us personally, we shared six premieres, five album reviews, one photo essay, a Mundo list of guilty pleasures, and 42 additional singles. The artists and bands represented XX countries, specifically Australia, Canada, England, France, Germany, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Scotland, Sweden, and the United States.
