This week, I’m joined by guest curator and musical powerhouse Emily Wolfe to build a playlist spotlighting the best female rock artists and bands of the 1990s. From grunge to alt-rock, we’re celebrating the women who helped define the decade with bold songwriting, fearless performances, and era-shaping records.

We also dig deep into Emily’s 2023 album The Blowback, exploring why she chose to self-produce the record, how she pushes lyrical boundaries on tracks like “Walk In My Shoes,” and the role her ever-growing guitar and gear collection plays in shaping her unmistakable sound. Along the way, we talk about her powerful cover of ’Til Tuesday’s “Voices Carry,” her time on tour with The Gaslight Anthem, and the ways their musical paths naturally intersect.

A wide-ranging conversation that blends playlist curation, artist insight, and behind-the-scenes stories from one of modern rock’s most compelling voices.
