Under The Covers: January 2022

When it’s hard to get moving in the New Year, let alone each wintry day, a rolling theme for the full month of January seemed appropriately cozy. #ThematicStatic on each Thursday of this month has celebrated cover tunes by some of your favorite indie bands, and better known artists, too. (OK, yeah, The Beatles, Stones and Beach Boys got some extra love.)

Listener requests were plentiful and the final curation of each show was intentionally diverse, featuring plenty of locals, too. (We see you, Allison, Sturgill, The Brook & The Bluff, sElf, Tristen, Amanda, Yola, Joy, The Protomen and Rosie!)

Stream individual broadcasts👇🏼 and also find a full Spotify playlist 👇🏼 you can share with your cover-lovin’ pals. Hit us up at @wnxpnashville on the socials and we’ll add to the list, maybe even reprise this theme later in the year. Trust that I’ll be up at 91.ONE WNXP from 6-10 each weekday morning whether you’re up and at ’em or staying bundled up under the covers. No judgment.
