126: Music for Existing
January 05, 2019 16:25 - 49 minutes - 67.7 MBWelcome to 2019! Look forward to a more varietal offerings of genres, more interviews and episode titles! Okay, so maybe that last bit isn't so exciting but it's fun for me.
Volume 125: 2018 Highlights
December 21, 2018 05:01 - 1 hour - 93.6 MBIn this edition of the podcast we continue the work that was started in Part One by highlighting a selection of music released during 2018.
Volume 124: 2018 Highlights
December 20, 2018 17:56 - 1 hour - 90.2 MBFor this episode we highlight some of the great music released by Nashville area artists during the year of 2018. Unfortunately, we couldn't come close to including every great song that we encountered. So, we'll be stretching this out into a Part Two to be released shortly.
Volume 123
December 17, 2018 05:01 - 39 minutes - 54.3 MBDespite our best efforts, we couldn't resist a full-on holiday music edition. Yes, we're all experiencing some Holiday Music Fatigue™ but these songs were too good to not shine a light on.
Volume 122
December 03, 2018 05:01 - 44 minutes - 61.6 MBWe've got plenty of plans for the 2018 retrospective but we'd be remiss not to include some late releases from November (and a sneak peek at a few releases still to come).
Volume 121 with Lance Conzett
November 19, 2018 18:05 - 1 hour - 102 MBVery special guest Lance Conzett joins us for a look at some Nashville Pop Music discoveries (as well as some of his non-pop local favorites) and delivers in spades.
Volume 120
November 05, 2018 14:00 - 39 minutes - 54.8 MBWe’re back with a non-themed episode of quality Nashville area music. This volume is divided into two halves; the first half leaning into several great new pop offerings and the back half mixing it up with a bit more variety in the department of genres. All and all, a great mix of diverse music coming […]
Volume 119
October 22, 2018 05:01 - 37 minutes - 52.4 MBAs Halloween approaches, it only feels appropriate to use our time together with Volume 119 to showcase the spookier and scarier side of Nashville area music.
Volume 118
October 08, 2018 05:01 - 39 minutes - 54.5 MBAfter two weeks of heavy travel and an overwhelming feeling of being out of the loop, we're back! Unsurprisingly, putting together this episodes playlist of tracks was a total breeze. How is that possible? Well, Nashville just keeps cranking out the great music so finding eight songs of entertainment is unbelievably easy. Pats on the back to everyone involved.
Volume 117
September 24, 2018 05:01 - 49 minutes - 67.9 MBDespite the questionable narration, the music of our region continues to stretch and fill unexpected spaces. Lots of great new music in this episode from recent releases AND a tiny little bit of education on the impressive discography of Lambchop.
Volume 116
September 10, 2018 05:01 - 45 minutes - 62.5 MBWe're back to our regularly scheduled programming of featuring new and notable local releases. Herein, we learn what Corinthian Leather is and I share a personal anecdote that turns into gushing praise for a band.
Volume 115
August 27, 2018 05:01 - 54 minutes - 75.3 MBThis edition of the podcast is all covers. Nashville artists make a ton of great music and that includes interpretations of other great songs.
Volume 114
August 13, 2018 05:01 - 43 minutes - 70.1 MBKeeping in step with the last episode, let's play around with the format a little bit. Instead of just attempting the show vaguely unprepared, this installment flips the pacing of the show with the slower tracks up front instead of rounding out the show. Unsurprisingly, it works great.
Volume 113
July 30, 2018 14:02 - 45 minutes - 72.8 MBThe one with no script but tons of great music. The range of genres and styles that Nashville has been delivering lately has been excellent.
Volume 112
July 16, 2018 05:01 - 44 minutes - 70.9 MBIf there were more distinct episode titles for this show this one would be called "The Lonely Biscuits Apology" - as I learn a hearty lesson about judging a band too harshly simply by having an opinion on their name and not their actual music.
Volume 111
July 02, 2018 13:59 - 42 minutes - 67.9 MBPlenty of goods to hear from the likes of Dave Paulson, Zook, Western Medication, Veil of Tears, Eve Maret, Fetching Pails, Charlie & The Evil Mothers and The Pink Spiders AND a sneak preview of a forthcoming new podcast on the WOTT Network. We've got it all really.
110: Beth Cameron of Forget Cassettes, Ponychase, Black Bra
June 18, 2018 05:13 - 1 hour - 100 MBThis episode, we stray from the mixtape of new music format and sit down with Beth Cameron - best known for her work as Forget Cassettes - and discuss the hardships of being a female in the recording industry. While we certainly cover the basics of how she got into music, the recording process of her first album Instruments of Action and what she's up to now, we also dive much deeper into how Nashville culture can do better about listening, finding empathy and how being vocal is the only road...
Volume 109
June 04, 2018 05:01 - 37 minutes - 60.4 MBEpisode 109! In which I use the word "vibes" approximately 10,000 times and compare bands that age me as a host. C'est le vie! Fortunately, the music isn't aged, it's all fresh and enjoyable.
Volume 108
May 22, 2018 12:30 - 40 minutes - 65.5 MBOne hundred and eight episodes in to this show it's probably a bit absurd to still to be surprised at the wealth of talent our metropolitan area continues to produce but the feeling hasn't waned one bit.
Volume 107
May 07, 2018 13:37 - 35 minutes - 32.7 MBNashville gives a strong offering of diverse sounds on this one, from a brand new debut from Cloudmouth to the Classic Country of Joshua Hedley to the punk AF Depression Breakfast to DIY keyboard pop from Soft Robot, we got it all.

March 26, 2018 13:59 - 38 minutes - 35.8 MBComing in hot with another compilation of great new music from the Nashville area, including a premiere from Quichenight off the forthcoming album, Cooler Heads. Lots of great musical diversity from the likes of Jordan Lehning, Soft Bodies, So Very!, drumonymity and more.
Volume 103
March 12, 2018 04:15 - 33 minutes - 46.5 MBAnother collection of wonderful variety from our fine city. A brand new song from Pale Houses, a debut from bleary, what I'm calling "Chaotic Vaporwave" and some minimal ambient music out of Murfreesboro. All that and a correction on how to pronounce Joe Pisapia... we all learn something.
Volume 102
February 26, 2018 05:01 - 33 minutes - 46.5 MBThis week we dive into new releases from Joe Pisapia & Patrick Damphier, explore some curious sounds from Murfreesboro and hear new offerings from Dan Burns and Jessie Baylin (among others)

Volume 100
January 31, 2018 14:14 - 36 minutes - 49.9 MBWhen we relaunched the site with a new mission, it was obvious that the WOTT Music podcast would have to undergo some renovations. Historically, I’ve compiled 20-30 minutes of new Nashville music, put them together as a playlist and released them into the world. There was no talking and no context around the songs being […]
Volume 99
January 02, 2018 15:59 - 44.3 MBWelcome to 2018! While an astronomer might be quick to point out that there is nothing astronomically significant about January 1st, it works quite well as a time to refresh and begin again. A Fresh Start if you will. We're hurdling into the new year by posting another 25 minutes of great local music.
Volume 98
December 14, 2017 15:01 - 44.3 MBDecember is, historically, a time for reflecting on the year’s previous releases – a worthy practice if ever there was one. However, there’s still plenty of great recent releases that haven’t been highlighted on our show and that just simply will not stand. If the WOTT Music podcast is a time capsule of the great […]
Volume 97
November 21, 2017 15:32 - 54 MBIt's a Thanksgiving miracle! The latest edition of the podcast tallies up some recent releases and continues to showcase the diverse talent our fair city has.
Volume 96: Halloween
October 26, 2017 12:41 - 75.7 MBIn celebration of the ghoulish season I asked local music photographer and journalist / man-of-good-taste / Halloween aficionado Lance Conzett to curate an episode of the podcast brimming with his choice of local music spooky tunes. The resulting hour of selections is a delightfully surprising mixture of acoustic gothic tales, dark electronic and indie rock. […]
Volume 95
October 16, 2017 13:17 - 30.3 MBSerendipity led me to place Yon Ort and ONLY back to back – a track that claims “What you feel, isn’t real” followed by a track that claims “we all die!” It’s a haphazard goodness that I can’t take credit for but I’m happy to bring to you. No theme in this Volume of the […]
Volume 94
October 04, 2017 04:28 - 70.7 MBThis edition of the podcast is a companion piece to Volume 93 that catalogs the full Glossary discography of albums, from Southern by the Grace of Location to Long Live All Of Us.

Volume 93
October 02, 2017 05:01 - 20 BytesIn this episode of the podcast, we celebrate the 20-year anniversary of Glossary. Special guests Bingham Barnes and Joey Kneiser sit down for a discussion about the formation of the band, the history behind their discography and their conscious effort to set a moral, optimistic, compass for the downtrodden in their music. The band plays […]
Volume 92
September 18, 2017 14:52 - 47 MBI contemplated doing an entire episode the podcast dedicated to the all-too-short catalog of music from Those Darlins. I may still undertake that task but having seen the huge impact that Jessi Zazu had on her community, it felt appropriate to include Those Darlins in a mix of Nashville music; as they continue to contribute […]
Volume 91
September 05, 2017 13:49 - 35.8 MBAnother excellent compilation of Nashville music. The variety of upbeat pop, soundtrack music, hip-hop and even an R&B soaked demo is a tough varietal grab bag to top.
Volume 90
August 11, 2017 13:07 - 31.1 MBThe amount of new music flowing forth from Nashville is so abundant that we're following up the previous podcast with a new installment just a week later.
Volume 89
August 01, 2017 13:25 - 36.3 MBAfter compiling this edition of the podcast I immediately starting putting together the *next* volume; quickly tearing through all of the great music that has come out recently.
Volume 88
July 06, 2017 14:01 - 42.9 MBOne would think that Summer would signal a lighter load of releases but the opposite seems to be the case as lots of great, bigger name, albums are coming down the pipe. This Volume of the podcast covers a handful of the larger titles and makes sure to mix in a few new-comers to your ears.
Volume 87
June 05, 2017 13:23 - 41.9 MBI've been living in New York for the past four years but have managed to keep up with the Nashville music scene during that time and continued to churn out these podcasts.

Volume 84
March 14, 2017 13:01 - 47 MBDownload MP3 Chaptered Stream Podcast Let’s call it fundamentals. A WOTT podcast should consist of a variety of music showcasing the Nashville local music scene but keep it under the 40 minute mark. This volume includes a heavy dose of indie rock, keyboard pop, grunge rock, traditional country and desert psych rock – clocking in […]
