This week, we talk about the year in music with Melissa Ruggieri.

The pandemic has had a major impact on everything this year, and the recording industry is no exception. Despite all of the obstacles and upheaval, 2020 was a pretty good year for music, at least the recorded variety. Live music is a different and more troubling story.

Take a look back at the sounds of 2020 on this week’s AccessAtlanta podcast.
