‘WTTS In Conversation’ is a bi-weekly podcast delivering decades of WTTS interviews with emerging and legendary artists. Episode #11, available now, features Singer-songwriter LP, who has written music for superstars like Celine Dion, Christina Aguilera, and Rihanna, but has an impressive catalog of solo work as well. She spoke with morning host Matt Pelsor this past Spring about her career, her personal style, and her unique musical proclivities like whistling and playing the ukelele.
WTTS A to Z 2020 is officially underway! The tradition continues as we take a journey through the WTTS library, playing the best of WTTS alphabetically.

Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram WTTS A to Z is presented by Dreyer and Reinbold, five brands, one passion for driving.
A few notes about how we alphabetize the music:
-Articles “the” and “a” are ignored
-Numbers are spelled out (“1979” is “Nineteen Seventy Nine,” for instance. “Back 2 Good” becomes “Back To Good.”)
-Acronyms are ignored (ie: “FM” will tall in the middle of the letter “F,” instead of leading it off.)
-Cover songs? We ignore the spelling of the artist and put the original first, followed by the cover.
-Different songs with the same title? We alphabetize based on the band or artist’s name.

They combined earthy, organic material with first-rate musicianship in a combination that transcends boundaries. Feat took California rock, funk, folk, jazz, country, rockabilly, and New Orleans swamp boogie and more, stirred it into a rich gumbo, and has been leading people in joyful dance ever since.
Show your support and text “VETS” to 41444 to donate to Veterans Matter, an organization that helps move homeless veterans from cardboard to headboard.
There are over 37,787 veterans still on the streets.
Our National Homeless Veterans Housing Program is the result of collaborative innovation integrating technology, housing, and the community; with the medical, mental, and employment services provided by the VA; that creates evidence-based results for our heroes in need: Returning them to domestic autonomy. In other words, we bring people together to house as many homeless veterans as we can, as fast as we can in VA supported permanent housing, giving them a fresh start!
Veterans Matter is an innovative cloud-based rapid-response system – partnered with the VA’s Homeless Veterans program – which allows the homeless veteran to get housed in literally minutes rather than the 30 to 60 days normally required to obtain the deposit. Essentially your donation is used as a deposit paid directly to the landlord to allow the veteran or veteran family to cross the threshold into a warm place called home for a fresh start.
During the COVID-19 crisis, homeless veterans are alone, often sleeping on nothing more than a piece of cardboard. Together, we have the power to move them from cardboard to headboard—and we need to act now.
Veterans Matter has housed 4,000+ veterans in 25 states and they want to house 1,000 more. With so many veterans sleeping on cardboard, they are urgently working now to move them from cardboard to headboard in a warm, safe home of their own.
You can help move homeless veterans from the streets into their own home by visiting www.cardboard2headboard.org.
