Slate Music Club returns as a podcast series, featuring a panel of music critics discussing the year's trends, albums, and singles. Hosted by Carl Wilson, the first episode includes Julianne Escobedo Shepherd and Ann Powers.
Hey, everybody—this is Chris Molanphy, host of Hit Parade, Slate’s podcast of pop chart history. This is a recap of 2024, the year in music, with my colleagues in the Slate Music Club . What is the Slate Music Club ? For more than two decades, Slate convened a panel of critics at the end of each year to discuss the year in music, the cultural trends that drove the musical zeitgeist as well as our favorite albums and singles.
We would share our thoughts in a series of written articles published just before the holidays. This year, after a brief hiatus, we’re bringing the Music Club back and turning it into a podcast conversation. We’ve convened a panel of smart folks to talk about music in 2024. Let me introduce our participants, two of whom have graced the Bridge before, and one joining us for the first time. First off, making her debut on the Bridge, it’s Julianne Escobedo Shepherd. She is a writer, editor, and co-founder of Hearing Things, an independent, worker-owned music publication. They’re already doing exciting stuff, so do check it out. And she is the author of the forthcoming book. Next, of course, it wouldn’t be Music Club without veteran of the club Ann Powers. Ann is a critic and correspondent for NPR Music and the author of several books, most recently the superlative, which Publishers Weekly named as one of the 10 Best Books of 2024—richly deserved, by the way. And our host for this musical roundtable is Carl Wilson, Slate’s chief music critic. Carl is a freelance writer and editor based in Toronto. He’s the author of, and he helps run Popular Music Books in Process, a biweekly online series featuring conversations with the authors of new books about music. Without further ado, I will now turn it over to Carl.Chris, thank you so much for that. It’s an honor to be here and to be here with Julianne and Ann as well
