LET ME PUT YOU ONTO SOMETHING: This year may have been awful, but at least the music wasn't. Bali C-M (12) For me, and I think everyone on this planet, 2020 was not the best year ever. However, one thing that helped me through it was music. I love music, dare I say more than your average person does, and listening to my favourite artists and discovering new ones was both a source of comfort and joy this year. Music is a great way to connect with people, and I did that this year by making playlists for my friends around the world, to share what music I'd been enjoying and receiving their music recommendations in return. I wanted to do the same for you all, so I compiled a list of my favourite albums that came out this year, and collaborated with some of my music-loving friends to give you a list of our favourite not-so-mainstream (alternative) artists. I hope you find a new artist that you like!
