Wes’s Musical Meltdown 2017 year In Review: Part 1; Rock and Pop

Posted on by Wes Derby

2017 was a pretty good year for music. I’ve divided the podcast into two parts. Part one is Rock and Pop; part 2, the longest part, is country. I’ll be using the same notes for both, but you’ll be able to distinguish which is which by the title.I’m sure there’s some music I missed in each category, but enjoy nevertheless. Feel free to use the contact links on the page to give your thoughts. Forgive the audio issues; I’ve never attempted pre-recording a show before, but will hopefully get better at it as time goes on.

Catch the show every Sunday night at 7:00 PM East on XTFM. We return live for the first Sunday of January. Get your requests in Here!
