The 113 Best Recordings of 2013 is based on the playlists of Wednesday MidDay Medley. In 2013 we’ve played over 1000 songs, and hundreds of New & Local Releases. We’ve presented dozens of LIVE in-studio performances from area performers, and we’ve interviewed over 200 local and national guests. 62% of the recordings on our “Best of” list were locally produced. It’s all good!

It is a celebration of a great year in music!
