The Mountain Music Happy Hour is a Value 4 Value music show where we automatically switch to the artists’ wallet when playing their songs. Unless otherwise noted, 95% of all value sent during a time-split in a modern podcast app, or thought the Split Kit page, will be sent directly to the artist(s) of the song being played.

This week on Mountain Music Happy Hour, we’re thrilled to welcome Em, the artist behind Survival Guide, for an in-depth conversation and musical journey through the Value 4 Value music scene. We kick things off with a cheeky parody wondering if Dr. Phil might just be a V4V fan himself before rolling into a high-energy opening featuring Rock’N’Roll Breakheart.

Em shares the backstory behind her haunting track Nowhere Anywhere and opens up about what brought her into the Valueverse. Throughout the episode, we dive deep into her thoughts on the difference between the traditional music industry and the Value 4 Value model, her experiences so far, and what makes certain songs and artists stand out to her.

Alongside Em’s insights, we feature an eclectic mix of tracks from talented V4V artists including The Doerfels, Ollie, Two Weeks In Nashville, Rick Black, Ainsley Costello, Patrick Manian, Theo Katzman, Suzanne Santo, Matt the Tall, THEM TEETH, Temples, and Sara Jade.

From Em’s love of ocarina music to her admiration for fellow “singin’ woman” Sara Jade, this episode is packed with great tunes and genuine conversation. We close with a special feature on “wordswordswords” by Survival Guide—Em’s favorite V4V track she’s released into the scene.

💥 Boost it, stream it, and keep Shootin’ It Straight with us every week.

A HUGE shoutout to Rock’N’Roll Breakheart for the show’s theme song, based on his track Rock’n’Roll Demon. Check him out on his website at RockNRollBreakheart.com.

This week’s episode kicks off with a rockin’ start—Taylor Swift might not officially endorse the show, but we’re claiming her vibes anyway! Rock’N’Roll Breakheart opens the evening, setting the tone for an eclectic mix of indie gems and Value 4 Value music.

Jack Holliday tiptoes into the spotlight, followed by the electrifying sounds of Circle the Earth and the nostalgic edge of My Friend Jimi. We shine our own spotlight on the Satellite Spotlight: Sprouting Symphonies showcase (don’t miss it May 10th at 7PM EST / 6PM CST) with a thrilling trailer and a killer block of featured artists.

Tracks from the artists featured on the Satellite Spotlight, The Trusted**, Red Arrow Highway, MOOKY, and CityBeach keep the momentum rolling, while the V4V Segment highlights Sat Streamers and Boosters keeping the value flowing!

Later in the show, Man Must Explore, Jimmy V, and R.O. Shapiro tug at the heartstrings before we roll into The Doerfels, Keisha Buckland, and June & The Jets for a dynamic finish. We also celebrate Jessie Lark‘s latest win and tease next week’s guest: Em from Survival Guide, closing with her powerful track Way to Go.

As always—boost it, stream it, and keep Shootin’ It Straight with the Mountain Music Happy Hour. 🎶
