As the “Live Music Capital of the World,” Austin is full of talented local artists.
Many of them have had their big break, but what about the yet-undiscovered ones? What they need is a megaphone to blast their sound around Austin and beyond.
Enter the Austinot Music Podcast.
The Austinot Music Podcast premieres today thanks to the show’s host, Austinot Dusty.

I love this musician. I seriously haven’t been able to get her out of my head for a week now! I think she is definitely going places with her music! She is absolutely fantastic and just the type of music that should be played on radio, not the pop we all endure these days. Besides, it’s really catchy!!
Austinot Dusty says
She is definitely going places. Which song do you like better? Heavy or Before You Were Mine?
Haleigh Burger says
Before You Were Mine, for sure. Heavy sounds a little too poppy for me.
holli says
Wow, she is truly amazing! She has the edge and soul of the progressive, austin music that holds on to the tradition of folk.
very nice.
Austinot Dusty says
Isn’t she, though?! 🙂 I love how Austin artists hold on to their folky roots. Did you hear who she plays alongside?
Bettie says
Wow! Beautiful song she sounds a lot like Cobie Collet..
Haleigh Burger says
That’s what I said!
Austinot Dusty says
You’re right! I hadn’t thought of that. What do you think of her voice?
Eallseitz says
Dusty is a great musician. I really enjoy the music and I’m excited about the podcast tomorrow. 😀
Austinot Dusty says
Haha! Thanks, but the podcast is over Emily Wolfe – not me! Just wait until you get a chance to listen at home.
Christy says
Her lyrics get me every time, they run through my head for days!
Austinot Dusty says
Same here. Have you heard any of her other work?
Eric Highland says
My comment doesn’t count for the free CD (as I’m one of the Austinots) but I will say that when Dusty showed me the song “Heavy” I was really impressed with Emily’s sound and style. I think she is going to earn quite the local following with her sound and I wouldn’t be surprised if she starts getting offers from major labels. Bravo to Emily and company. – Eric

If you’re gonna be in Austin, you gotta be a fan of good, undiscovered music. I mean, that is why many people come to Austin in the first place, and if you go to The Drag on weekends, there’s always struggling artists playing for a few bucks, and the bars always have people. This woman reminds me a lot of Rocky Lott, who is another relatively unknown from the Austin area who now lives in Weatherford.
I keep waiting for Ian Crocker to get a record deal to go with all those gold medals he has, but… alas. That’s not gonna happen. (If you want to listen to him, I’ll rip the extras from a very expensive copy of the DVD he made with Michael Phelps and upload it. He’s an amazing blues and rock singer/songwriter.)
TJ says
This combined two things that I enjoy so very much. Dusty speaking, and pretty women with good voices. I look forward to further installments!
Austinot Dusty says
A man after my own heart. I also love those two things. What did you think of the music?
Dberry3 says
Great voice!!! The young lady is going to be BIG in the music world!
Austinot Dusty says
Huge, I tells ya, huge! No doubt about it.
Lacyvegas says
Great!
Austinot Dusty says
Glad you like it, Lacy. Emily is very talented!
Nate says
Hey guys!
It’s “Indie Music Reviewer,” not “Review.”
Just sayin’. 🙂

Austinot Dusty says
Thanks for catching that, Nate! Must have missed it. What did you think of Emily?
B H says
Her music is great but this commentary is the worst.
Eric Highland says
Ouch BH! It was his first podcast… we think he did pretty well for a newbie podcaster.. we all gotta start somewhere. Glad you liked the music at least!
Karen Gresham says
Emily, Bravo! You are a fresh new beautiful Star. Emily, singing Star, let your light shine!
Austinot Dusty says
Isn’t she great, Karen? Have you heard many other artists who sound like her?
