Picking a list of top releases for the year is not an easy task. 2009 was good to the Nashville music scene and there was a load to sort through. There was no way to boil down an entire year of music into the standard 30 minute podcast format so this one is super long and attempts to be all inclusive. Thirty tracks in total are contained within and I’m sure, looking back, there are songs that were unfortunately overlooked. On the whole, this is meant as a time capsule to reflect upon the past 365 days. So, drink up and let us know what gross oversights we may have made.

2009 Year End Lists: Nashville Mixtapes

Posted Mon December 21, 2009

One of the biggest losses from the WRVU Community DJ policy switch-up was the loss of Nashville Mixtapes. It’s possible that the show will find a new home somewhere else but, for now, we’ll just have to scour his archives to relive the goodness. The show was consistently on point with music We Own This Town agreed with in its goodness. That is to say, our tastes are quite aligned. We asked DJ Brandon Spencer to give us his top ten of 2009 for local artists and we found lots of common ground and a few new names we’re headed to check out immediately.

Honorable mention – though technically released in 2008 and re-released in 2009:
