The East September Roundup

Monthly Roundup: September 2017

Welcome to the end of September! Festival season is officially behind us and now we’re wading ear-deep through one of the busiest album-release seasons of the year. This isn’t even all of them, just the albums that we had time to get to. There are, in fact, only so many notes the human ear can hear in the course of an evening.

Here’s everything we’ve managed to write about in the meantime.
