Description
—Billboard Country
Here are the untold stories behind country’s most influential songs from the tunesmiths themselves—featuring interviews with Jelly Roll, Taylor Swift cowriters Liz Rose and Lori McKenna, Luke Combs cowriter Drew Parker, Morgan Wallen hit writer Josh Thompson, chart-toppers Clint Black and Vince Gill, legends and trendsetters like the late Merle Haggard and Kinky Friedman, Americana troubadour Jim Lauderdale, and song crafters with scores in film and television like A Star Is Born Oscar nominees Hillary Lindsey and Natalie Hemby and Songland judge Shane McAnally.
Songs of Nashville is a look inside the lives and work of the artists who’ve shaped Nashville and the sound of country. It reveals the emotional fuel, melodic and lyrical science, and pure magic of the Music Row hitmaking machine.
Through in-depth profiles and conversations, country artists reveal the birth stories of the songs you know and love—and some you may not, but you definitely should!—from spontaneous moments of inspiration to the chemistry of collaboration.
Songs of Nashville is a must-read to discover the secrets of the creative process and the enduring power of storytelling that makes country music timeless.
