This Week’s Top 11 Playlist: 16 June 2017

As I worked my way through a week-long detox at a wellness retreat in Phuket, Thailand–the liver needed some TLC, you understand–I had time to go through a lot of email. A lot. Anything to keep my mind off cheeseburgers and martinis. Out of that slavish devotion to you, dear reader, comes these eleven hand-picked new songs that I hope you’ll enjoy this weekend. Thanks, as always, to Mediazoic for the hosting.
