No. 28 - Music Writer Exercise edition
For the month of February I listened to one album every day and tweeted about it

About eight years ago, music writer Gary Suarez laid down a challenge for music journo Twitter: for every day in February, listen to one full album you’ve never heard before and write one tweet about it. Using the hashtag #MWE, which stands for Music Writer Exercise, it’s become something of an annual tradition for a subset of music nerds.
I first took part back in 2019 and loved it and did it again in 2020. Last year was a bit of a write-off due to family/life commitments, but now I’m back on my bullshit. If you want to see what everyone else listened to, just search #MWE .
Here’s a rundown of the random assortment of 28 albums that I listened to (and tweeted about) this year.
