We wrapped up our 2025 Firehouse Sessions with a bang on December 3rd, welcoming Delaney Bailey to WFHB for the final session of the year — and going out with a full band felt exactly right.

This was easily one of the coolest sessions of the year. Delaney and her band showed up locked in and bringing their A-game to the Firehouse and filling the room with a performance that felt both powerful and intimate. We’re especially proud to say this marked Delaney Bailey’s very first live radio session — a milestone we don’t take lightly. There’s no question this is just the beginning of many future radio sessions — and we’re proud that WFHB was where it all started.

Chicago-based but Indiana-born, Delaney is an IU alum who began building her audience by posting original songs from her dorm room during the COVID era. That honest, stripped-down approach struck a nerve, and she’s since grown a devoted following of over 70,000 followers on Instagram— with momentum that continues to build.

Enjoy this Firehouse Session, and keep an ear out for Delaney Bailey’s forthcoming album, concave, arriving in early 2026.
