THIS WEEK, WE’RE asking you about your favourite stuff of 2014.
You’ve already told us about the best TV programmes of the past 12 months (keep an eye out for our posts about live shows, films and books). But what has been the best listen of 2014?
WAR ON DRUGS. Angel Olsen. Jenny Lewis. Hozier.
It was a great and varied year for music, so much so that here in TheJournal.ie and DailyEdge.ie offices we’ve had a tough time trying to narrow down our favourite 2014 albums.
