I have a different music goal for this year.
Every week, I plan to highlight two acts that I have never played before!
There will be one artist each for a key song and a album.
I intend to only consider releases from 2021 or received as part of a current promotion for this designation. I anticipate some overlap from last year, especially at the beginning of this year.
Whether I consider them for future lists will depend on whether my “snap judgment” is worthy of that.
On old WKNR music guides, this was a weekly feature, so it’s kind of an homage to the station.
My distinction will be a weekly “key album.”
I hope you like my NEW New Year’s resolution, and together we will continue to explore new music!

What happens when a guy who has produced M.X.P.X., Less Than Jake, and Blink 182 as well as others, decides to make his first record?
You get a pretty damn good album, that’s what you get!
Showing a more sensitive and somewhat introspective side than the aforementioned bands, Steven Bradley’s “Summer Bliss and Autumn Tears” album is chock full of pop/rock songs that feature a slightly skewed observational point of view!
In a very creative video for a solid rockin’ song, “Pre-Emptive Strike” (Love the title!), Steven describes a relationship to prove that all is fair in love and war…and sometimes they’re the same!
The New Key Album of the Week is “Summer Bliss and Autumn Tears” by Steven Bradley!!!
