Sounds of 2024

Jennifer Lucy Allan shares musical highlights from the past year's worth of adventurous listening, with help from Late Junction family and friends.

As the year draws to a close, Jennifer Lucy Allan offers up musical highlights from the past 12 months of adventurous listening, including some favourite albums, impactful live moments, and ear-worms she just couldn’t shake. There’s music from bare bones DIY trio (and recent Late Junction session guests) Still House Plants, distorted avant-folk improvisation from Welsh harpist Rhodri Davies, and a rare piano outing from percussionist Limpe Fuchs.

En route, we'll also hear selections from Late Junction family and friends as well as picks from some of 2024's featured artists, including saxophonist Patrick Shiroishi, archive diggers Queer Folk, and Kenyan metalhead Lord Spikeheart.
