2017 may not have been the best year for us here at SCAD Radio. With everything that goes on in our lives and in our world, it can be hard sometimes to see the best in what we’ve been given. Still, we are a radio station invested in giving SCAD the best music we can give, and 2017 did not hesitate in giving us hit after hit.<\/p>\n

To celebrate that and to give our staff a fun little idea to\u00a0kick off 2018, we asked everyone what their favorite album of 2017 was. As usual, our staff did not disappoint.<\/p>\n
