The Seattle Times has released its annual Best Local Albums of the Year list for 2021. Local music writers, DJs, and playlisters submit their top ten favorite local albums, and the list is made up of the albums with the most votes.
KUOW’s Kevin Kniestedt sat down with Michael Rietmulder, music writer for the Seattle Times and curator of the list, about the top three albums on the list, and one of his personal favorites that made the cut.
