On My Way to PHX with Whitney Peyton

The Junkies welcome very special guest Whitney Peyton, so this episode is all about music. Whitney is a headlining rap artist, songwriter and all-around content creator (she makes her motion picture debut this month!) who hails from Philadelphia and is now based in Phoenix. Whitney chats with Hayley, Shauna, Alex and Nicole about her music and her influences, tells touring stories, and even confesses to seeing Nickelback in concert. Whoa. Then Whitney and the Junkies list the up and coming acts you need to get familiar with now, like Rittz, Chayce Beckham, Kate Mcrae, First and Forever, The Strike, Kanga, Ramsey, Frank Munro and Emanle Ali. We’ll include a link to a spotify playlist in our Facebook support group so you can check out Whitney’s music as well as the ones suggested by the Junkies.
