Steve Howe - Best Albums Of 2019

2019 didn't get off to the best of starts for myself personally speaking. I originally announced that I would be shutting down the blog back in Jan 2019. However, 6 weeks later I announced my return. I needed some time away to reflect on things and decided to carry on.

I needed the break away but it made me realised that I would miss what we do at Outlaws Of The Sun too much. 

It's been a great year for music and we couldn't run this blog without your support. Same goes for the bands, record labels and PR Reps who allows us to do what we do.

Thanks for all your support. It means a lot to us all.

Thanks to the entire team and the hard work they've put in over the last twelve months.

I also want to thank the following folks for their support and friendship over the last 12 months which got me through some rough times - Bucky Brown, Bill Goodman, Billy Goate, Heddbuzz and Michael William Petry  

Huge honourable mentions to GIZMO, Marty Harvey, Matthew Thomas of Taste Nation LLC and Frazer Jones of Desert Psychlist.
