The Mountain Music Happy Hour is a Value 4 Value music show where we automatically switch to the artists’ wallet when playing their songs. Unless otherwise noted, 95% of all value sent during a time-split in a modern podcast app, or thought the Split Kit page, will be sent directly to the artist(s) of the song being played. Episode Summary In this special episode of Mountain Music Happy Hour, host Randy Black welcomes singer-songwriter Jessie Lark to the show for an in-depth discussion on her journey into the Value-for-Value (V4V) music model. The episode kicks off with the Rock’N’Roll Breakheart, setting the tone for an evening filled with incredible independent music. Jessie’s track “Rainbows” starts the lineup, followed by an introduction where she shares her motivation for joining the Valueverse—a decentralized, fan-supported approach to music distribution. Throughout the show, listeners are treated to performances from a diverse set of V4V artists, including Ainsley Costello, Two Weeks in Nashville, The Doerfels, and more. Between sets, Jessie discusses her experiences transitioning from the traditional music industry to the Valueverse, comparing the freedom and direct artist-audience connection it provides. Other standout moments include Jessie discovering Abi Muir’s “Stockholm”, sharing her love for Monica Larrea’s “Sensitive”, and discussing the emotional depth of Sara Jade’s “Singin’ Woman”. The show closes with a special version of “rainbows (i saw her in green)”, leaving listeners with a powerful final note.
