Devalued is a podcast about the intersection of art and money. Hosts Michael Ackley and Caroline Bowman have talked with the likes of Steve Albini, Suzanne Cianni, Josephine Foster, Mary Mancini & Kurt Wagner, Tristen and so many more! On a recent episode recording, Ackley got caught up in a work obligation and I got the opportunity to step in as guest host. Swapping Michael for Michael; a classic switcheroo!
In this episode, we speak with WNXP Program Director Jason Moon Wilkins and Event Director Emily Young. They provide a load of great insight about how radio fits into the modern music industry, how they spend a considerable amount of time working to be part of the Nashville community and how artists can benefit from radio in real, practical, ways.
It’s unfortunate that streaming technology seems to rule the headlines these days because radio really does have an incredibly powerful potential to it. The likes of KEXP, WFMU and KCRW come to mind most immediately but WNXP is doing an incredible job as well.
Very appreciative to be part of this conversation and I hope that artists remember to submit their music when it’s ready for release!
