I came up with 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 an album.
I intend to only consider releases from 2021 or received as part of a current promotion for this designation.
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!

I can’t say that I know much about Jordi, the artist for this week’s New Key Song of the Week, “Escape Route.”
As a matter of fact, I couldn’t find anything at all.
No one sheet, no bio, no website, and no “about me” page.
That usually doesn’t matter much to me anyway, but I usually like to know a tidbit of info.
So, all that’s out there, at this point, is her music.
In the video for “Escape Route,” a graffiti scarred shell of a building stands out against a desert setting.
Might be California, Arizona, or many other desert locations in the world.
Jordi, who is cute and energetic, appears to play all of the instruments.
On youtube, the lyrics are posted along with the video.
If you just read the lyrics, the mood would be kind of dark.
However, the song rocks, featuring loud guitars and booming drums along with a catchy melody!
I like it!
The New Key Song of the Week is “Escape Route” by Jordi!!!
