top 10 for 2013


this is my list of the top 10 albums/EP's for 2013. they are in no particular order except for switchfoot. they are first because i love them. so. much.
  • switchfoot- fading west EP. it's only 4 songs but 4 incredibly wonderful songs that make me so excited for the full length release in january. 
  • needtobreathe- cercas blancas EP. some album versions, some live versions, a couple old songs and one new song that i'm hoping ends up on their next LP. 
  • love out loud- the wildlife. they ventured into some new genres on their debut full length and it paid off. 
  • anthem lights- covers part I. i swear these boys could sing the phone book and i would think it should win an award. 
  • green river ordinance- chasing down the wind EP. when you open with the violin you instantly have my heart. 
  • capital kings- capital kings. you just can't go wrong with good dance music.
  • the almost- the fear inside our bones. aaron gillespie and co serve up some gritty southern rock 'n roll. 
  • the civil wars- the civil wars. those haunting melodies and tight harmonies are always a yes. 
  • parachute- overnight. this album has been on repeat for me for months.
  • ben rector- the walking in between. this is my singer-songwriter, guy-with-a-guitar choice album for this year. 
  • honorable mention: brandon heath- christmas is here. i think i'm mostly for this album because brandon has a campaign going to not have christmas music played until after thanksgiving (not even his album which released just weeks ago) and i completely support that movement. 
so that's my list...who's on your list???
