Hey everyone! Tonight will be the final episode of New Music Monday for this semester, and unfortunately, the final one in my tenure as an undergraduate student at Marquette University. It’s OK, though, because this program will continue next semester, hosted by my two assistants, Claire Kelly and Vince McCann, as well as by the incoming music director for next semester, Chelsie Layman! Be sure to tune in to New Music Monday next semester, but more importantly, tune in tonight so you can hear me host New Music Monday for one final time! Tonight’s songs played are each from the top ten albums played by the DJs on Marquette Radio over the past week, and each of them have frequently been played throughout this semester. The songs played will be in order of their position on the Top 10 List for Marquette Radio’s music charts over the past week, starting at #10 and peaking at #1. In order of where they appeared on the Top 10 Chart last week, in order, here are the songs played on tonight’s New Music Monday:
