Grammy-winning songwriter Ashley McBryde joins us on Nashville Now to talk about her new album Wild, a project that dives deep into her family lineage and her desire to be “fully seen.” The Arkansas native also shares her journey to sobriety and what the word “redemption” means to her — it’s not only the name of her mocktail-forward bar on Nashville’s Lower Broadway. McBryde also has a gift for a Scottish accent, and once she starts it up, she can’t stop. Join us on the podcast for a conversation that gets to the human side of one of Nashville’s most important songwriters.

Blondshell joins Angie Martoccio and Leah Lu in The Rolling Stone Studio to talk about her brand new album, 'Violins,' and why she felt compelled to put out a new project after releasing one last year: "I really hate sitting on songs and not doing anything with them. I think I have a subconscious fear that they'll go away or I'll lose the excitement around the song." She also chats about the music she's enjoying these days (Charli XCX, Slayyyter, Life Without Buildings), the type of vibe she'd curate at her wedding, and plays FMK: nostalgia, the moment, the passage of time. "It's become very trendy to hate nostalgia. I love it," she says.

A record-breaking stand-up comic from Boston who initially made his reputation as “the undisputed heavyweight champion of rage-fueled humor” and a pioneering podcaster, Burr had an epiphany on the set of Aaron Sorkin’s new Facebook film and ended up completely changing his life, his work, and his comedy. “I don’t want to be known as the angry guy anymore,” he told Rolling Stone during an extensive, candid conversation. “I want to be the guy that lets people meet in the middle.”
