Five Big Ears 2019 artists found their way into NPR’s list of the Top 100 songs of 2018, from the clipped beats of Jlin and the intricate wonders of Mary Halvorson to the borderless collaboration of Brooklyn Rider with Magos Herrera to the instrumental wonder of Nils Frahm. And at No. 34, Gabriel Kahane even gets a Walt Whitman comparison!
