  • Deana Carter Danny Myrick
    Deana Carter DEANA CARTER, the daughter of famed studio guitarist and producer Fred Carter, Jr., grew up surrounded by musical greats, including Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan, Waylon Jennings, and Simon & Garfunkel. She developed her songwriting skills at writer’s nights throughout Nashville, but her real break came when one of her demo tapes fell into the hands of Willie Nelson, who remembered Deana as a child. Impressed with how she’d grown as a songwriter, Nelson asked Deana to perform along with John Mellencamp, Kris Kristofferson, and Neil Young, as the only female solo artist to appear at Farm Aid VII in 1994. Her 1996 debut album Did I Shave My Legs for This? quickly climbed to the top of both the country and pop charts, quickly achieving multi-platinum status. "Strawberry Wine,” the first single from the album, was awarded CMA's 1997 Single of the Year. Seven albums and a decade later, Deana is still writing and producing for both the pop/rock and country markets when not on the road touring. Her superstar success continues to be evident. Her chart topper “You & Tequila,” co-written with Matraca Berg and recorded by Kenny Chesney, was nominated in 2011 as CMA’s “Song of the Year” and received two Grammy nods. Carter also recently co-wrote and produced a new album for recording artist Audra Mae while putting the finishing touches on her own Southern Way of Life that hit the shelves last December. Danny Myrick DANNY MYRICK is an award winning songwriter and musician based here in Nashville.

  • This Week, Purely out of Curiosity, I Looked up Rolling Stones Top 100 Songwriters of All Time. a Few Spots on the List Surpris
    This week, purely out of curiosity, I looked up Rolling Stones top 100 songwriters of all time. A few spots on the list surprised me a little but let’s see if you agree with their ordering. I’m not going to read all 100, but I’ll hit a few of the names that we are familiar with today. 97 Taylor Swift 95 Bee gees 91 Eminem 84 Kanye 82 Marvin Gaye 76 Loretta Lynn 69 James Taylor 68 Jay Z 60 Willie Nelson 59 Tom Petty 56 Madonna 54 Kurt Cobain 53 Stevie Nicks 50 Billie Joel 48 Elton John 47 Neil Diamond 43 Johnny Cash 40 John Fogerty 39 David Bowie 35 Bono and the Edge 34 Michael Jackson 33 Merle Haggard 31 Dolly Parton (3000 songs, 20 country #1) 29 Buddy Holly 26 James Brown 22 Van Morrison 18 Prince 16 Leonard Cohen 14 Bruce Springsteen 12 Brian Wilson 11 Bob Marley 10 Stevie Wonder 9 Joni Mitchell 8 Paul Simon 7 Carole King and Gerry Goffin (Wrote music for the Beatles, Dianna Ross, Whitney Houston, Gladys Night and the pips) 6 Mick Jagger and Keith Richards 5 Smokey Robinson 4 Chuck Berry 3 John Lennon 2 Paul McCartney 1 Bob Dylan These are the people who write the score that lays behind the scenes of most of our lives. I’m one of those people who gets overwhelmed with nostalgia anytime a song from my early years comes on the radio. My wife on the other hand grew up weirdly sheltered. We have this pattern that we have probably played out 1,000 times in our marriage where an old song will come on and I immediately start to sing along and I’ll look Esther right in her eyes and sing the rest of the line like I’m an 80s rock star and she’s my groupie and the look that she returns to me is so blank that I almost feel the need to introduce myself to make sure she hasn’t forgotten who I am.
