Spotify Wrapped: Nos. 3-5 might have been higher if they'd been released earlier in the year. @josienneclarke.com is the only one on BlueSky. Parenthesis, I is a fine album.
Spotify Wrapped - my top 5 artists in 2024 were: 1 The Last Dinner Party 2 Chappell Roan 3 Austel 4 Josienne Clarke 5 Beth Gibbons
