and people are decorating the tree, getting the last of the shopping done; putting plans in order – looking forward to the last working week (before the big day itself!). The penultimate Playlist before Christmas brings together an odd, but terrific, assortment of sounds together. Johnny Marr and Maxine Peake are not names you’d expect to feature in the same piece of music – they have unveiled an intriguing piece in The Priest. MGMT, Eminem and Charli XCX are in the pack; Anne-Marie, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard have new cuts out – so too does Skepta and Sheryl Crow.
Another wonderful and busy Playlist that is sure to keep the mouths watered and show that not everything music-based right now is Christmas-themed. It will be fascinating seeing whether next week’s crop of new music brings us a stocking filled with treats and treasures!

There sure is a lot to get the teeth into this week!
It shows, even though 2018 is a matter of days away, artists are not relenting – determined to add their mark to 2017 and ensure it is given a mighty send-off! Let’s hope that continues for the remaining two weeks: who knows what gems and delights will be uncovered!
