Episode Summary
This week on the Mountain Music Happy Hour, we welcome singer-songwriter Sara Jade for a soulful journey through music, meaning, and the spirit of the Valueverse. The episode kicks off with the always-energizing Rock’N’Roll Breakheart intro, setting the stage for a rich, reflective ride.
Sara shares the story behind her track “Wait Destiny”, a personal favorite that kicks off a thread of honesty and transformation throughout the show. As we move through tracks like Ben Jonesy Jones’ “Way of Life” and Brad Johner’s “Saved by Grace”, Sara opens up about her decision to join the Valueverse—highlighting the freedom and creative liberation it offers compared to the traditional music industry.
Listeners are treated to a lineup of powerful, value-driven music, including standout tracks like:
•Nate Johnivan – “Bad People”
•Adam Kirkup – “A Heart of Stone Can Only Break”
•Two Weeks In Nashville – “Here Again”
•Mayday Mayday (feat. Sir Brian With an I) – “Higher”
•Abel James – “Don’t Wait for the Morning”
As the episode unfolds, Sara Jade shares her deep connections to several tracks, offering personal reflections that make each song hit harder. From the haunting pull of June & The Jets’ “Leave It Alone”, to the nostalgic uplift of Sam Means’ “Live Forever 2”, and the rebellious energy of Vertigo Kidd’s “Pirate Radio”, every selection adds depth to the theme of artistic authenticity.
We also hear why songs like Malory’s “Take A Pill”, R.O. Shapiro’s “St. Joan”, and Hannah Blanchard’s “Stop” (feat. Alex Bonyata) hold such significance for Sara.
The show wraps with a heartfelt conversation about her own track “Never Knew”, closing out an episode that’s as introspective as it is inspiring.
π Whether you’re tuning in for the tunes or the talk, Episode 44 is a must-listen celebration of musical freedom and the voices that make the Valueverse shine.
