For our 100th episode, I sit down with Ward Guenther, the creator of Whiskey Jam and a cornerstone of Nashville’s music scene. Ward’s journey started with a guitar at summer camp and a dream that brought him to Nashville in 2003. Since then, he’s built something truly iconic.
We explore how Whiskey Jam grew from an underground writers night into a platform that launched countless careers for many stars we know and love. Ward shares behind-the-scenes stories, from unforgettable performances to the challenges of keeping the show fresh and exciting.
As the perfect guest for this milestone episode, Ward reflects on the magic of live music, the community he’s built, and the joy of helping others chase their dreams. Don’t miss this celebration of 100 episodes and the love of music that brought us here!
