To kick off 2024, we thought we'd give you some new tunes to listen to.

Our Cleveland Current playlist, updated every month, features a new collection of 30 songs for your listening pleasure — and they're all produced by local musicians and bands. In the nearly two-hour playlist, you'll hear the debut single from Everyone I've Ever Known (musician Justin Markert's new project), indie punk artist House of Wills and an EDM banger from Jimmy Rock.

You'll also catch some new stuff from Italian jazz and folk band Alla Boara — who has more new tunes on the way in 2024. The band plans to release its new live album at the Cleveland Museum of Art on Jan. 24.

Plenty more, too. Listen below.

(Also, in case you missed it: We put together a 180+ song playlist celebrating 2023's local music releases. Be sure to check that out on Spotify, too!)
