MURFREESBORO,
Tenn. — Acclaimed songwriter Angaleena Presley will be the next guest artist
on “Wired In,” the new 4K webcast series from WMOT/Roots Radio 89.5 FM and
Aurora, Nashville's premiere online ultra high-definition streaming production
studio.
The show is set for 5 p.m.
CST on Tuesday, April 25, and can be viewed live at WMOT.org, station streaming
video partner Vuhaus.com and on AuroraNashville.com.
“Wired In” offers
audiences worldwide a chance to sit in on intimate shows and interviews hosted
by WMOT Program Director Jessie Scott. The show’s guest artists are leading
lights in roots and Americana music, pulled from the playlist of WMOT, a
100,000-watt roots/Americana radio station serving Nashville and Middle
Tennessee from the College of Media and Entertainment at Middle Tennessee State
University.
The shows so far have
featured banjo great Bela Fleck and Yep Rock recording artists The Stray Birds.
Angaleena Presley is one
of the most intelligent and socially observant songwriters in today’s
neo-classic country branch of the Americana movement. The rural Kentucky native
draws from her upbringing and the true stories of a troubled region to create
songs in the tradition of Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton.
“I’m a feminist who
fights with love, a kill ‘em with kindness person – but also a kill ‘em with
honesty,” she says in her official bio. “ The most powerful weapon we have is
honesty and vulnerability: showing your weakness and your truth is the greatest
weapon we have.”
Sustaining members of
WMOT are eligible to attend “Wired In” shows in person in downtown Nashville.
About WMOT/Roots Radio
WMOT-FM 89.5, Middle
Tennessee State University’s flagship public radio station founded in 1969,

the initiative is a partnership with the music experts and on-air talent of
Music City Roots, the Franklin-based weekly variety show that reaches the nation
on radio and public television. At last, the Nashville region has a powerful
radio station (100,000 watts) dedicated to the music most deeply connected to
Music City’s legacy: classic country music, bluegrass, singer/songwriter, folk,
soul, R&B and old-school rock ’n’ roll.
