WRLT ("Lightning 100") is an independently owned and operated adult album alternative-formatted FM radio station in the Nashville, Tennessee market and located at 100.1 mHz. The station is licensed to Franklin, Tennessee, some 20 miles south of Nashville.

Previously failing in modern country and rock formats, the current format was adopted in the mid-1980s under the leadership of Robert Horton. Since then, the format has been "tweaked" on numerous occasions.

WRLT's playlist is an eclectic mix of legendary artists, up and coming singer/songwriters, and current music. Artists such as My Morning Jacket, Led Zeppelin, Beck and Brett Dennen can be heard on the station. Lightning 100 was the first station in Music City to play artists such as Jason Mraz, John Mayer, Sheryl Crow and Dave Matthews Band. The station, unusual for commercial stations in the U.S., has demonstrated a considerable dedication to live programming.

Programming highlights include the "Lightning Request" lunch hour, the "Local Lightning Spotlight" each weekday (featuring unsigned bands that call Nashville home), "Retro Lightning" on Saturday mornings and the "Indie Underground Hour" on Thursday nights.

In 2006, WRLT launched the syndicated talk radio show, Music Business Radio, hosted by music marketing expert, consultant, and author David Hooper, and features interviews with various industry professionals giving the listener their insight and expertise into the business.

Subsidiary Team Green spearheads Nashville's annual Earth Day celebration in Centennial Park and Live on the Green, a free weekly concert series on the plaza at Metro Nashville Courthouse.
