Allison Hagendorf

Music. Movies. Stories. Culture. Bridging generations through sound & storytelling.

This is the home of artist interviews, deep dives, and the stories behind the cultural moments that stay with us.

I’m Allison Hagendorf, a lifelong storyteller of music culture. I’ve been Head of Rock at Spotify, a record label exec, TV host, and music journalist. I use music as a love language and a connector between generations.

Here you’ll find The Allison Hagendorf Show, intimate conversations with the artists behind the music and the stories that shaped them.

You’ll also find Allison Unchained, unveiling the stories behind the songs and movies that shaped generations.

It’s nostalgia and discovery. Context and connection. The human stories behind the soundtrack of our lives.

If music has ever been your therapy, rebellion, or religion. If a song has ever made you feel seen or saved, you’ll feel at home here.

Come for the storytelling. Stay for the connection.
Welcome to the community.
