Number 1: BONUS: Remembering Dolly Parton
Dolly Parton’s death on Aug. 25 at age 80 after a quiet battle with cancer resonated around the globe. But it was especially acute in Nashville, where she lived, launched her career, and died. In a special tribute episode of Rolling Stone’s Nashville Now podcast, host Joseph Hudak and Rolling Stone Senior Writer Marissa R. Moss talk about the vibe of the city, what we’ve felt, and what’s to come. We also explain what Dolly’s final public appearance says about her life, share our favorite Dolly moments, and offer our thoughts on who in country music best embodies the Dolly spirit. It’s a remembrance of a woman, an artist, and an icon whose impact will be felt for generations, only on Nashville Now. Country is Here… Nashville is Now.

Number 2: Aaron Raitiere Will Change Your Definition of a ‘Country Song’
Aaron Raitiere has been compared to legends from John Prine to Shel Silverstein for his eccentric, anything-goes approach to songwriting. But the Kentucky native also knows his way around writing a hit: Ella Langley, Miranda Lambert, and Lady Gaga have all covered his songs. In this rambunctious, irreverent conversation in the Nashville Now cabin, Raitiere lets us into his songwriting process and also shares some behind-the-scenes tales of his friendship with the late Bob Weir and the lost project they were working on before the Grateful Dead icon’s death.

Number 3: Brothers Osborne “Sell Out”: The Nashville Duo Want Your Attention
Brothers Osborne are going home, but first the Grammy-winning duo are stopping by Rolling Stone’s Nashville Now podcast. Singer TJ Osborne and guitarist John Osborne join us for a conversation that looks back at their beginnings in Nashville more than a decade ago and where they’re headed on new album Watertown, a celebration of their hometown of Deale, Maryland. They also talk about releasing “sellout” editions of their new singles in an attempt to capture today’s short-attention spans, and how their unexpected collaborations with Cody Johnson came to be. It’s one of Nashville’s most important bands, only on Nashville Now. Country is Here… Nashville is Now. Check out our Hear Now playlist on Spotify, updated weekly. Learn more about your ad choices.

Number 4: Maggie Rose is No Longer Nashville's Best-Kept Secret
Maggie Rose has been known as “Nashville’s best-kept secret” for far too long. With her new album Half Moon and a pair of Grammy nominees under her belt, the singer-songwriter is standing fully in the spotlight. On Nashville Now, Rose talks about reinventing herself in the competitive music industry, how she became a favorite of jam-band audiences, and why living in Nashville as an all-genre artist can be a double-edged sword. It’s a snapshot of a woman who bravely took control of her career and, as she titled one of her albums, changed the whole thing. Country is Here… Nashville is Now.

Number 5: BONUS: Will Hoge and Dave Hause Live From Mile of Music
Will Hoge and Dave Hause, two of roots music’s most incisive songwriters, join Nashville Now live onstage at the Mile of Music Festival in Appleton, Wisconsin, for one of our most charged conversations yet. Both artists toe the line between rock & roll and Americana and use their music to make pointed cultural and political statements. Onstage at Mile of Music, one of the U.S.’s must-attend boutique festivals, Hoge and Hause tell the stories behind songs like Hoge’s “Whose God Is This” and Hause’s “Tarnish” — and perform them live too. Nashville Now and host Joseph Hudak put listeners right in the room with two artists who aren’t afraid to speak truth to power. Country is Here… Nashville is Now.
