NASHVILLE –CMA Songwriters Series will return to the venue where it all began, New York City’s Joe’s Pub, on Thursday, March 25 (6:30 and 9:00 PM/ET). This will be the sixth year for the wildly popular series that continues to play to sell-out crowds.
Featuring former CMA Horizon Award winner and Capitol Nashville recording artist Dierks Bentley (“Feel That Fire,” “What Was I Thinkin’,” “Free and Easy [Down the Road I Go],” and “Sideways,” all recorded by Bentley), the CMA Songwriters Series allows music fans insight into the stories behind some of their favorite songs.
“The CMA Songwriter Series is something I’ve wanted to be part of for a long time, but the timing just never worked out until now,” said Bentley. “I love all the small clubs and songwriter venues around the city, the vibe and acoustics at Joe’s Pub are great. It’s fun to break it all back down, get rid of the big stage and the lights and video screens where it’s just you and a bunch of your buddies and a couple of guitars. It’s really intimate and you’re reminded real quick how important the songs are and that they are the foundation of the Country Music that’ll stand the test of time.”
Joining Bentley will be Jim Beavers (“Watching Airplanes” recorded by Gary Allan, “Trying to Stop Your Leaving” recorded by Dierks Bentley, and “Don’t” recorded by Billy Currington), and David Lee Murphy (“Living In Fast Forward” recorded by Kenny Chesney, “Big Green Tractor” recorded by Jason Aldean, and “Dust on the Bottle” recorded by Murphy). Bob DiPiero (“If You Ever Stop Loving Me” recorded by Montgomery Gentry, “Blue Clear Sky” recorded by George Strait, and “You Can’t Take the Honky Tonk Out of the Girl” recorded by Brooks & Dunn) will serve as host for the evening.
