October 31, 2025 2025 Halloween Spectacular
Back due to unpopular demand, it’s horror host Michael Bleeds and another spooky extravaganza of local spooky songs. As past year’s rituals have demonstrated, our journey begins creepy and delightful but we descend into proper creepy, full-on.
This edition of the show has many favorites from past years and plenty of brand new classics. Michael Bleeds keeps it well balanced. When you’re done with this one, be sure to revisit the archives from 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018 and the first from 2017.

We Own This Town: Music strives to be a podcast showcasing new and notable music from Nashville and surrounding areas. For this episode, we focus more on the notable moreso than on the new. Having personally curated this show for eighteen years, these songs have left an impression. They span the musical gamut and, even at over 2 hours, this barely scratches the surface.
If anything, I hope this can stand as an introductory primer for anyone curious about what made the Nashville music scene so special and what actively makes it so special today and onward.
That’s total wife on our cover; an absolutely unbelievable talent.

March 18, 2025 398: Skin on the Bone
It may have been six weeks since our last episode but there’s been no shortage of fantastic new local music to check out. My apologies for the silence but I will make up for it with nearly two hours of wall-to-wall goodness. This playlist was meticulously curated and then I let the Randomizer Machine shuffle it all up. The results are great no matter how you hear it. Enjoy!

January 31, 2025 397: A Mile Deep
Whoops, almost a month between episodes. Hate it when that happens but, hey, life has its varying priorities. What I love is that I was able to put together 2 hours of local music without batting an eye. The backlog is deep – a mile deep you might say – but that means that sharing local goodness with you is easy! It may not all be brand new but, as the saying goes, if you’ve never heard it before, it’s new to you! Fingers crossed Episode 398 won’t take near as long (it won’t).

December 31, 2024 396: Down with the Quickness
Ending the year on a holiday compilation just didn’t feel right so this episode came together with the quickness! The upside to the wealth of Nashville music is that it doesn’t take much to put together something superbly enjoyable. Here’s around 90 minutes of local tunes to take you outta 2024 and into 2025. See you on the other side.

November 15, 2024 393: Style, Delivery, Diversity and Pleasing Surprises
In this installment of our show we put together 58 minutes of music across 18 tracks (plus some extra padding for babbling about the tracks). It is, yet again, a wildly enjoyable romp through pop/rock, indie rock, hip-hop, some brutal metal and a few other styles along the way. Not quite breakneck speed but a delicious variety awaits.

October 03, 2024 391: The Internet-O-Sphere of Awareness
The double length duration of the last episode was so pleasing, we’re doing it again! Maybe that makes Episode 390 less special because now it’s becoming the norm but let’s not think about that right now. We’ve got approximately 2 hours of local music queued up (and one minute of fun coffee shop ambience) and not a single track on here is bad.
