How many music apps y'all got?

I was talking with a couple friends who tolerate my Jam music but arent huge fans themselves, and they were somewhere between shocked and disgusted at the number of different music apps I use regularly on my phone.

Here's the list:

-Spotify (for my normal music)

-Nugs (for most of my modern jam music)

-Relisten (GD, post-GD bands like Ratdog and PLAF, Steve Kimock, qnd other Jam Bands)

-Tapers Section (same as above)

-PlayDead (GD, obviously)

-Plex (my downloaded music collection which consists mostly of GD)

What apps is everyone else rocking?

Songs like Midwest Gospel Radio

This song is magical. Im not the biggest bluegrass fan (unless its Billy Strings) but this song manages to hit me to the absolute core of my soul.

Something about the slower pace, and the perfect interweave of the instruments manages to sweeten up even the toughest moments of life. However, it is criminally short at only 2.5 minutes. For reference, my main sauce is jam music (mainly the dead) so the song feels likes its over before it even started.

There's versions I can listen to on Relisten from live concerts, but what im really curious about is if there are other bluegrass songs that have a similar vibe - slower, fully instrumental, and overwhelmingly uplifting.

What should I check out next?

Oteil and Friends last night (5/13/26)

My gosh this show is phenomenal. He's got Melvin seals on the keys, Steve Kicock on lead guitar.

It should be on nugs for the next few days, catch it while you can. Some really awesome dead jams in there. Hillbillies on PCP > Slipknot! was diabolical, one of the best Scarlet Begonias ive heard, Shakedown Street was fun.

Really looking forward to listening to tonight's show on my way to work tomorrow.
