2019 is a rapidly disappearing speck in the fender mirrors and 2020 is stretching out ahead of us, like a long, winding, inviting stretch of logging road. So let’s warm the damn glow plugs, drop the clutch and get to it, people!

In the spirit of things, here’s what we’re been jamming to in the Den of Adventure of late.

What’s here? Ah, man. All our favorites, including the standard inclusion of a tune from The Connells, one of our “desert island” bands (and due to drop a new record this coming year, mehears…) Also some throwbacks in the form of southern rock’s most forgotten greats, a cavalcade of 80’s pop classics, newish bluegrass tunes and even some trippy-ass Spanish punk rock.

If this doesn’t get you through those long winter nights, our only other suggestion is tequila. Lots and lots of tequila.
