For this weeks episode, we switch things up a bit. We still serve up a load of wonderful local music across a variety of genres and styles but focus on the more dance-y, electronic, pop and unexpected offerings for a good portion of the show. There’s plenty of standard goodies peppered in as well...

Where else you gonna hear hip-hop, soul, rock, folk, country and trance all from the Nashville area all in one show? Nowhere, that’s where! We’re here with fourteen new and notable tracks to bring you some mind-boggling variety.

Anchor Thieves - “Patsy”

Back with another playlist of stellar local tracks. No particular theme to tie everything together, just great local music that will surprise and delight you. It’s what we strive for every episode.

Intro - “Welcome”

We kick this episode off with a special track that serves as both tribute and fundraising effort for Fran’s East Side. If you haven’t seen the news about Fran’s, their lease is not being renewed by their landlord and they need some fundraising help. Sadly, this sort of situation is becoming much ...

This episode we dip a heavy hand into the We Own This Town Mailbag and come back with a variety of songs that we might not have discovered on our own. Truth be told, there are plenty of selections here that didn’t come from submissions but, hey, it’s a healthy mix! If you’re interested in submitt...

We tend to treat our WOTT Music episodes like birthdays; try to do something special for those that end in five or zero. As such, we’re sharing a playlist of cover songs this go around. We’ve got a long list of covers from Nashville artists and think sharing a solid twelve of them is a nice refre...

If you’re new to the show, every episode we play new music from the Nashville area spanning a wide variety of genres. We do our best to steer clear of the typical sound you might think of when considering the name “Nashville” – no commercial country, no songwriters in the round. We do our best to...

Huge thanks to Lance Conzett and Negro Justice for bringing their guest hosting skills to the last two episodes while I was out on Summer Break. It’s good to be back but I’m a little rusty! Trust me, you can tell! The music in this episode is fifteen tracks culled from the massive influx of new m...

The one and only Negro Justice joins us on this episode to talk about some of his favorite Nashville hip-hop artists, potential collaborators and loads of folks that inspire his work. It’s fifteen tracks all curated by our guest and we don’t shy away from talking about what makes Nashville hip-ho...

We welcome back photographer, writer and friend-of-the-show Lance Conzett to supply this weeks playlist. We talk about the storytelling strength of Nashville hip-hop, getting over the spectacle of Nashville Pop and leaning in to the weird. As always, it’s a treat to have Lance on the show and pro...

We’re calling this one a Mega episode! Though, honestly, it’s just one more track than what we normally play so that’s probably a bit of a misnomer. Regardless, it’s a jam packed episode of tracks and the playlists are refreshing.

This episode also marks the start of We Own This Town Summer Brea...

Another hour of local fueled music for your consumption. We do our best to keep things recent and relevant while also still mixing in plenty of eclectic choices from around the bend that you may have missed. If something doesn’t strike you immediately, just wait a few minutes and you’ll find a ne...

On last weeks episode we played a track from an artist we stumbled upon named St. Slug. Turns out, we stumbled on a Bandcamp Burner account and ended up with early access to a Scrap Skreezy album not quite ready for public consumption. As penance, we’ll be playing some Skreezy again this episode ...

Five sets of three songs from a wide variety of local musicians. We tried to segment things in a way so you get a themed set of songs followed by a set a little left of center; rinse and repeat. We get full on squishy at one point and manage to serve up a whiplash of genre hopping later on. Good ...

To celebrate 250 episodes, we sit down with one of our favorite hip-hop artists. Negro Justice came on our radar in the summer of 2020 with the The Stimulus EP and has released a staggering body of work in the ensuing months. We talk about his latest collaboration EP Resplendent (done with WOTT f...

This episode of the show is another varietal playlist of new releases and tracks that have caught our ear. You may be hearing loads of new local tracks over on WNXP and on the Nashville Scene and other blogs like No Country For New Nashville but I promise there’s enough to go around. It’s really ...

Another quality episode of varietal sounds from around the Nashville music scene. We strive to cover an interesting amount of genres so you’ll always find something up your alley. As always, dive in to more music from all these artists with the links below.

Another stellar episode for ya! Lots of interesting variety in this one, branching into some new genres and styles that we don’t typically feature on the show.. mixed with plenty of the local goodness (we hope) you know and love.

Wilby - “Joanna”

We find ourselves with an ever-growing backlog of wonderful local tracks. So much of a backlog that it’s anxiety inducing to not get it out into the world in a timely manner. Contained herein, fifteen tracks of WOTT Approved™ tracks for your discovery and enjoyment.

D1ON - “To the Moon”

This week on the show – as you may have gleaned from the episode title – we sit down with songwriter and composer Lydia Luce. Her new album Dark River was released back in February and has garnered an absurd amount of press; from NPR to Forbes to, now, We Own This Town. It’s a beautiful record th...

Huge thanks to Daisha McBride for joining us last episode and another large pat on the back to Bandcamp for supplying us with yet another #BandcampFriday to fuel our backlog of amazing Nashville music. In this episode, we’ve got fifteen tracks of new local greatness for you. Honestly, we dare you...

This episode we have the extreme pleasure of being joined by the one and only Daisha McBride. If you aren’t familiar with the East Tennessee native who transplated to Nashville a few years ago and has been absolutely killing it ever since; there’s no better time than now to get familiar.

In our last episode, we noted that we had a large backlog of great new local music to make our way through and it wouldn’t be unexpected if we published a secondary episode to catch up. Well, here we are! Another dose of great new music spanning a ton of genres and styles just a few days after gi...

Many thanks to Michael Hix for taking the time to talk to us last episode about the Nashville Ambient Ensemble and all of its collective members. Aside from the pleasantly educational experience of that interview, it also created a backlog of new music to share. So, this episode is Part 1 of 2 sh...
