Found WTXM

WTXM provides a compelling insight to the world of music makers, way beyond our own playlists. Great intro to artists we might not know, otherwise, and to the behind the scenes people that also make it happen.
Andrew’s podcasts are well prepped, and he knows where he is going, but easily takes a side road of interest…. as much a conversation as an interview.
Will keep listening for more. Glad I found this.

Andy Clendenen’s interviews are engaging and his guests fascinate, as he draws out a wealth of information of what motivated and inspired these Texas born or transplanted musicians and composers! A sample of the artists’ music is always a treat as well. The relaxed format leaves the listener pleased, intrigued, and wanting more! Thanks, Andy!

Loved it!

Great content and interesting interviews. I live in Texas and had never heard of most of the artists interviewed here, feels like an undiscovered gem!
