As noted in the last episode, the backlog is over! At least, the 2023 backlog is over. Now I’m working on the 2024 backlog. It never ends. That’s a good thing; the well will never run dry. Maybe I should have entitled the episode that. Next time. Regardless, helluva great episode here ready for your ears. While you’re here, go ahead and subscribe t…

It’s accidentally been a minute since the last episode! Woops! As per tradition, episodes ending in a zero or five we try to do something slightly different. For episode 380, we’re clearing out the 2023 backlog. For the past thirty episodes we’ve been playing catch up on releases from last years and it’s high time we finish that task! So, this epis…

A special episode for two reasons. First off, every episode we strive to cover a wide range of genres while still being compelling and we nailed it on this one. That’s real special. Secondly, this is the 365th episode that I’ve released (that’s Michael Eades). There are a handful of WOTT Music episodes done by other people but now, if you so desire…

Making our way through a backlog of releases from 2023 but, quite honestly, the lines are beginning to blur. Plenty of these tracks were released in 2024 and, *even more honestly,* who cares **when** music was released? It’s just music that’s new to me and new to you. It’s 45 minutes of wonderful local music. What else ya need to know? That’s BATS …

You up for 56 minutes of local music? Ideally you answered yes to that, otherwise we got ourselves a real conundrum! Tune in, enjoy and then click through in the show notes below to hear even more.

If you’re looking for an excellent introduction to the varietal offerings coming from the Nashville music scene, this is a solid episode to start with. The opening two tracks – debut singles from Body Electric and Demiatrix are stellar and the show just keeps that level of quality throughout the duration. There’s even some experimental tuba that is…

We’re calling this episode a “Lost Episode.” Back in April of 2023, this entire playlist was compiled and ready to go – but life got in the way and the episode was never recorded or released. It’s been a haunting, lingering, specter ever since! So, without further ado, here’s a playlist of local tracks that were ready for your ears 11 months ago bu…

It’s local and it’s good for you. This episode we’ve got twelve tracks that run a wide gamut of genres – an offering that helps us achieve our goal of bringing you some interesting offerings. Always.

The second song of this episode is a Flesh Eater track that may throw you off your game pretty quickly. It’s a bit off kilter, it’s a bit different but it’s also joyous and features a surprise treat – stick with it. There’s also a song from 2011 in here that I accidentally bought twice because I have the brain of a mouse. Regardless of those unnece…

This one is filled with all sorts of magical happenstance timing. New track from Tayls and he recently announced a big show called PRISM? Yep. Another track from Gloom Girl MFG and they just announced their new EP and release show? Absolutely. Did I plan any of that beforehand? Not a chance! It all just happened for a reason. Dive in deep on this o…

Continuing to plow through a backlog of 2023 releases. Included in this episode are some absolute doozies you won’t want to miss. See the notes below for links to hear loads more.

Three hundred and seventy episodes deserves a special playlist! So, we put together 21 covers – one of which is even a local band covering a local band and another is two local bands collab’ing together for one mega cover. Everyone loves a cover! Let this be a conduit to discover more from these artists or maybe just a way to have a new favorite ve…

This entire episode is dedicated to trying to get you up and moving around. There’s a lot of great dance-y music emerging from Nashville and it’s a great feeling to pull some of it together and get that body moving. Not *every* song on this episode will inspire that movement but the intent is to get you there on the whole. Lock in, start throwing y…

Approximately 56 minutes of new and notable local music for you. We kick this episode off with “Lip” from Mama Zu – the debut and final project from Jessi Zazu and Linwood K. Regensburg Jr. If you aren’t familiar with Those Darlins (Zazu’s original band) or the Scene cover story about Mama Zu, please familiarize yourself ASAP. As always, take some …

This episode we are focusing on a genre I am calling slowgaze. It’s not a specific genre – it might be shoegaze, it might be psych folk, it might be electronic, it might be ambient, it might be metal – but there’s something about it that is a little withdrawn, then explosive and always immersive. Our hope is that these twelve songs will carry you a…

There’s a collaborative contingent of musicians in town that are creating a massive catalog of music that checks many of the boxes of what I like to hear. These artists – Total Wife, Zook, Thomas Luminoso, Rowen Merrill, Celltower, Rig B, Melaina Kol, Make Yourself at Home, Fresh Air 4 & Rube – are working together, inspiring one another, challengi…

You may have noticed a distinct lack of Nashville hip-hop on the past few episodes. This is not an intentional oversight but, rather, the natural result of primarily sourcing our music from Bandcamp. A large majority of Nashville hip-hop artists do not post their music to Bandcamp (or maybe they just don’t take it Nashville), which means we’ve got …

This episode we bust out a solid dose of rock music; much of it very high energy and pretty dirty. To temper that, we also toss in a few songs to give your excited heart rate a rest.

WOTT MUSIC is, essentially, a radio show. But it’s only on the internet and you decide when it airs. Also, unlike the radio, I promise you’ll hear more than three songs in a row that you like. Even if you don’t know them, you’ll like them. This episode is great proof of that promise. That’s Abby Johnson on the cover. Click here for full episode not…

Another 50 minutes of local music queued up and ready for your ears. Okay, more like 40 minutes with about 10 minutes of yammering in between but that’s not exact! There’s likely less than 10 minutes of talking overall. This episode opens with “Waiting So Long” and I stand by my request for someone (preferably the band) to make a 10-hour version of…

How about that cover photo of Medusa’s Hairdresser? Shot by Chase E, it’s an incredible snap from a band that has announced they’re going their separate ways. Don’t fret tho, that likely just means multiple new bands will emerge from their various members. Tons of great music in here. Some of it from brand-new-to-Nashville outfits; so for every Med…

Not only are we working through a general backlog of releases from 2023, we’re also working through a Dan Burns Backlog. There’s 3 Dan Burns songs in this episode and I stand by my decision to include them all. If you’re incredibly weird and do not like Dan Burns, don’t worry, there’s plenty of Non Dan Burns™ in here as well. Dan Burns on the cover…

A handful of song couplets and then a long epic song trio to cap things off. We’re making our way through the backlog of 2023 but sprinkling in some more recent releases along the way. As always, dig deeper into these artists and albums. You’ll enjoy it. Madebit on the cover. Click here for full episode notes Follow us or submit your music: Instagr…

This episode features roughly 50 minutes of new local Nashville music and a tiny rant about the constant need for all spotlighted music to be *new.* A tiny soapbox appears and upon it a call to all who will hear it rings out: “If you’ve never heard it, it’s new to you!” Never forget it. Willa Dustice on the cover. Click here for full episode notes …

If you’ve ever *really* questioned what kind of diverse offerings the Nashville music scene has outside of Music Row, this is a pretty damn good episode to cite as Exhibit A. It doesn’t cover everything but it certainly hits a lot of high notes. Tune in, enjoy immensely, spread the word. Pulsatile Tinnitus on the cover. Click here for full episode …
