Joshua Hedley – “Mr. Jukebox” (Official Video)

At the last Birdcloud Cool Christmas, Joshua Hedley took the stage and performed a stunning rendition of “All I Want For Christmas Is You.” His long-standing presence performing at Nashville honky-tonks was a sufficient endorsement of his skill but actually heard him sing in person is a different experience altogether. It was confirmation that his […]

Sad Baxter – “Baby” (Official Video)

We posted about the Sad Baxter single for “Baby” back in November when it was covered by NPR’s “Songs We Love” and now it’s got an official video – courtesy of the Nashville Cream premiere. The 90’s grunge vibe clearly influences more than just their music as this video is a perfect throwback to the […]

Volume 100

When 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 […]

Telefones – Rack Your Noodle

Rack Your Noodle EP by Telefones The Telefones relocated to Nashville from Atlanta in 2016 and released their debut Rack Your Noodle EP around the same time. The five-song undertaking manages to cover a good bit of ground as the band explores some psych-rock and shoegaze fused with the occasional punkish outburst. Immersing yourself in […]

WPLN presents: The Promise

While it’s not one of our podcasts, I’d still like to take a moment to point out the existence of Nashville Public Radio’s new series The Promise, a limited series release that explores the complicated (and often troubling) issues of gentrification, displacement and a massive undertaking to renovate a housing project. Embedded above is the […]

Lasso Spells – Stuck in a Shape

Stuck in a Shape by Lasso Spells The full-length from Lasso Spells, Stuck in a Shape, was released in 2016 when the band resided in Brooklyn. Since that time, founder Brett Dudash has relocated to Nashville and is working on a followup entitled Bohemian Mechanics. Assuming that the project keeps moving in the same direction […]

B|_ank – “RSM Take One (Hum)”

Art is hard. There’s just no way around that fact. Sometimes you’re going to encounter something challenging and odd to your sensibilities and ask “What is that?” The forthcoming split/collab between B|_ank and R. Stevie Moore is certain to stir up those feelings. “RSM Take One (Hum)” is a collage of Moore’s non-sequitors and meandering […]

Soccer Mommy – “Your Dog”

On March 2nd, Fat Possum will release the debut record from Sophie Allison’s Soccer Mommy project, entitled Clean. The label “debut” is a bit of a misnomer given that she has more than a handful of releases going back to 2015 but who am I to question marketing? No one, that’s who. The first single, […]

Mad Gear – Go Right and Fight OST

Go Right and Fight OST by The Mad Gear One of the primary goals of We Own This Town is to dispel the myth that Nashville is only capable of a handful of musical styles. Our community is capable of a mind-boggling diverse amount of music and we want to ensure you’re aware of that. […]
