Track of the Week
Each week Playground Boston will feature a song from a local artist that has caught our attention. These songs span all genres and will showcase the best of what Boston has to offer. We hope you give the tracks and the artists that made them a listen and let us know what you think.
If you would like your best song to be considered for the PGB track of the week, email it to bryan@playgroundboston.com. We’ll check it out and notify you if your track is selected! Please note that submitting a single for consideration here will not discourage us from reviewing your full album – we still want to hear what you’ve got. Please see the Contact page to find out how to submit your album for review!
