What's in store musically for 2020? Will the Dixie Chicks release a song as poignant as "Home" or as hook-filled and defiant as "The Long Way Around?" Will Field Music's next release contain any songs that are as lyrically wry as "The Noisy Days Are Over?" Will Sarah Harmer's next release contain a standout track that stays in the mind as much as "Almost?" How will the new Tennis release stack up with 2016's strong CD, "Yours Conditionally?" Which jazz, R&B, and folk artists will release captivating and thought-provoking melodies that end up in my favorite-music-of-the-year countdown?
I can't answer any of these questions yet. I look forward to filling in the blanks, however, over the next 12 months.
