If you’re following our Facebook page, you’ve no doubt checked out our VEER Top 10 This Week playlist of new songs released by 757 region recording artists.
We cover the full music spectrum including pop, hip hop, jazz, punk, folk, experimental, R&B, country, metal, reggae….you get the idea.
Following are our picks for the Top 50 songs released January 1 through June 6 this year. We listen for quality of songwriting, melody, musicality, production quality, and the like.
I hope you’ll seek these tunes out on Spotify and look for our weekly Top 10 on social media.
If you like a song, BUY it and even purchase the whole album or EP on Bandcamp so the local band makes a few more coins.
