It’s hard to believe 2016 is already coming to an end, but if you’re anything like me, you’re not too sad to see it go. On this edition of the Sat Alt,  we took a look back at a what has at least been a solid year for new music, and revisited some of the stand out tracks that we discovered and enjoyed together on this show. Dig into the Saturday Alternative – “2016 End of the Year Wrap-Up” playlist, and find the full Spotify playlist at the bottom of the page. There’s sure to be something that flew under your radar this year.

Wishing you and yours a Happy Holiday and a Happy New Year. Thanks for tuning in and being a part of our little listening party here every week on WTMD.
