Music for getting in a ‘wild’ mood

I was talking with my coworker Matt Martin, producer for KUOW's podcast The Wild, about songs we love that feature outdoor themes.

He has a playlist of favorites to bump while riding the bumpy roads to trailheads. I do, too.

I figured it was probably the same story for our nature-loving, getting-into-the-wilderness listeners.

We asked the followers of our Instagram account (@thewildpod) for the songs they use to celebrate being outside, and boy did they deliver. Below is a playlist of songs they sent in.

(I'm already going broke updating my stock.)

Embed not working well? Here's a link to the playlist or you can find us on Spotify by searching "kuow949."

Make sure to also tune into The Wild every Tuesday! It's available wherever you get your podcasts.
