My Year in Music – April 2021

So this month’s My Year in Music song choices are based on prompts I saw on a song a day for April post that I saw on my Instagram (it was Golden Discs that provided the prompts, if I’m not mistaken) so I said why not give it a go but put my choices here instead. April has been a hectic month and its only going to get busier but things are beginning to look up. Lockdown is finally relaxing somewhat in Ireland and one member of my family is fully vaccinated just 4 more to go but, if Ireland’s vaccine roll out takes much longer, I won’t be going on holiday next year with Niamh.

All that aside, the links for the Spotify and YouTube playlists can be found here or at the bottom of this post. Until next month, peace!
