CHIRP Radio Best of 2020

Throughout December, CHIRP Radio presents its volunteers’ top albums of 2020. Our next list is from DJ Matt Barr.

Alongside all the stress and heartbreak, 2020 delivered huge helpings of good music. I found myself buying and listening to more new records (and Bandcamp downloads) this year than ever before. And yet, there are still so many 2020 releases I haven’t gotten to yet, or didn’t have time to fully absorb.

In the end, I’ve listed the albums that pleased me the most...so far.

CHIRP Radio Best of 2020

Throughout December, CHIRP Radio presents its volunteers’ top albums of 2020. Our next list is from DJ and Board member emeritus Mike Bennett.

Staying at home, and thus losing so many social activities, meant I listened to more music than ever. And once I took on a second DJ shift, I doubled up my efforts to listen to new music, and I'm sure I've never come close to listening to as many new releases in a year as I have in 2020.

And there was so much good music, of all sorts, some of it directly inspired by artists taking this down time and doing something with it. This year only drove home how music can bring us together, even when he have to be apart, providing connection, and, even more importantly, comfort.

A lot of my favorite records this year simply made me feel a better in a time where things often felt hopeless. I rank albums because it appeals to my sense of order, but below my honorable mentions are 40-60 records that are just about as good.

And thanks to everyone who tuned in this year - going to the studio to do shows was more of a treat than ever, and hearing from so many of you made it really uplifting for me.

In addition to my usual favorite local releases, I've also included 10 new pizzas I tried in 2020 — think of it as bonus content I don't feel like I have to explain after the kind of year we've had. Scroll down, tune in, drop out, eat up.

There was so much great music this year, that it is really difficult to create a "Top 10" list, so I based my choices on albums that I reviewed and played heavily on my Thursday show at 10 pm Central Time.
