Best Songs of 2020: 4. Chloe Foy

Best Songs of 20204. Chloe Foy – ā€œSong for Dā€ It was a tough decision to include just one of the tracks from Callous Copper on this list, but ā€œSong for Dā€ gripped me too tightly to be forgotten.

Best Songs of 2020: 7. Henry Hall

Best Songs of 20207. Henry Hall ā€“Ā ā€œJohn the Dogā€ As far as silly music goes, ā€œJohn the Dog,ā€ and frankly the rest of Neato, ranks among the best of all time. The tale of Henry Hall’s imaginary dog pal leads us down a path to frightening self-awareness and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Best Songs of 2020: 9. Cut Worms

Best Songs of 20209. Cut Worms ā€“Ā ā€œSold My Soulā€ I needed the crooked twang of Cut Worms in 2020, and I sing along to ā€œSold My Soulā€ like I myself have made a deal with the devil. Nobody Lives Here Anymore is a comforting alt-country experience, but the Sold My Soul EP is even cozier.  Cut Worms | SnG coverage | order Nobody Lives Here Anymore … Continue reading Best Songs of 2020: 9.
