At WNXP, we are unabashedly, big time girlhouse fans. She was the first artist to perform in the Sonic Cathedral, had multiple singles on the air and is one of the most frequent flyers on the New Music Experience. So for this week’s show we decided to do something special — a “Listening Party” to […]
WNXP Nashville officially welcomed our first band in the Sonic Cathedral, our new state-of-the-art performance space.

It has been an incredibly deep one for releases by Nashville-based artists and while […]
This week we honor longtime Nashville music scene supporter, Michael Eades. He joined us to shine a spotlight on recent releases from his YK Records label, discuss the We Own This Town Podcast and preview his YK celebration at 5 Spot.
