Carl Jackson- Musical Dream Maker
Carl Jackson- Musical Dream Maker By Lee Kotick Carl Jackson is a musical architect, bridge builder, and dreamer. He’s a one of a kind man; a humble networker who enriches others’ lives. Jackson’s mantra is, “With each dream that becomes a reality, a new dream lies ahead.” Many of his dreams have come true. He’s not just a gifted musical producer, but a most influential guy who perhaps is singularly responsible for the creation of one of the major bridges between bluegrass and country from the 1960s to the present. His feet are firmly planted in both genres. Jackson’s humility would cause him to disagree with such homage. Make no mistake, bluegrass and country go together other like ham and eggs. Jackson’s body of work in bluegrass and country is unrivaled for its time period. Just as Glen Campbell and Jim and Jesse took a young banjo playing Jackson under their wings, he in turn takes on talented young artists, nurtures them and teaches them to fly on their own. As a good song must have a great title, so must dreams be built on bridges providing artists connections between episodes of their dreams. While he’s fulfilled many of his own dreams, Jackson is called to make others’ dreams come true. Our country’s greatest artists want to be affiliated with Jackson’s projects, and to a person, they clearly love and admire him. This is a man who has reached the epitome of musical production in our genres. The Man Jackson was born in 1953 in a small clinic above the Strand Theatre in Louisville, MS.

For All Bookings and Appearances: Erin Salley (850) 527-2429 [email protected] www.jerrysalley.com Mailing Address: Very Jerry Records P.O. Box 121041 Nashville, TN 37212 Jerry Salley has been referred to by Billboard Magazine as "One of Music Row's greatest veteran tunesmiths," and has had over 500 songs recorded (selling in excess of 18 million records worldwide) in his multi-award winning songwriting career. From Sir Elton John's only chart single to appear on the Billboard Country Chart ("Where We Both Say Goodbye" - duet with Australian artist Catherine Britt) to a Gospel song so popular it has been included in Church Hymnals ("His Strength Is Perfect”), Jerry's long list of accomplishments speaks for itself. Writing and singing in Nashville since 1982, he has written multiple hits in Country, Bluegrass and Gospel music and may well be the most successful songwriter to have earned equal recognition from all three genres of music. Salley was named the 2003 SESAC Country Songwriter of the Year, the 2018 IBMA Songwriter of the Year and was a 2019 Nashville Songwriter Hall of Fame nominee. He is a seven-time Dove Award nominee, having won a prestigious Dove for the 1990 Inspirational Song of the Year "His Strength Is Perfect", recorded by and co-written with Steven Curtis Chapman. In addition to his Dove recognition, Jerry has received numerous awards and nominations from different associations for his songwriting accomplishments (GRAMMY, IBMA, NSAI, SESAC, Gospel Voice Magazine, Absolutely Gospel, etc.). Along with friends Carl Jackson and Larry Cordle, “The Trio” (Cordle, Jackson & Salley) recorded the song "You're Running Wild" on the CD entitled Livin', Lovin', Losin' - Songs Of the Louvin Brothers", that won the 2003 GRAMMY for Country Album Of The Year.

Donna Hughes Award-Winning Singer-Songwriter Producer and Multi-Instrumentalist
Donna Hughes Award-Winning Singer-Songwriter Producer and Multi-Instrumentalist Award-winning Singer-Songwriter Donna Hughes has written over 500 songs during her impressive career. She has albums produced by Tony Rice (Gaining Wisdom) and J.D. Crowe (Hellos, Goodbyes & Butterflies) both on the Rounder Records label. Her songs have been recorded by numerous artists throughout the years including “My Poor Old Heart” recorded by Alison Krauss & Union Station and performed during the CMA Awards Show in 2005. Numerous other artists have recorded Donna’s original songs such as: The Seldom Scene, (“Sad Old Train” from the album Scenechronized), Kati Penn, (“Never Gonna Change” from the album My Turn To Cry), Nu Blu (“Nights” from their album Nights), Darren Beachley (“Scattered To The Wind” from his album I Love You To The Moon & Back), and The Snyder Family Band (“Little Bluebird” from their Comin’ On Strong album). “Whatever moves me, moves me to write,” she explains. For Hughes, songwriting is an all- consuming endeavor, encompassing all that goes on around her. “My songs are always about something I have seen, done, or felt – or something that I saw someone else do or go through. There is always truth to every song I write, even if it isn’t my truth.” In 2014, Donna embarked on her biggest endeavor yet by producing and releasing not one, but two new albums in 2014. From the Heart is her bluegrass album and includes 19 original songs plus two cover songs. The album includes the talents of Scott Vestal (Banjo), Tim Stafford (Lead Guitar), Rob Ickes (Reso Guitar), Jenee Fleenor (Fiddle), Cory Piatt (Fiddle), Zak McLamb (Bass) and Lucas White (Rhythm Guitar).

Mark Twain: Words & Music
Track 1: “Hello yourself, and see how you like it…” DiscHUCK: “YOU don’t know about me Onewithout you have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that ain’t no matter. That book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told the truth, mainly.There was things which he stretched, but mainly he told the truth.” NARRATOR: Samuel Langhorne Clemens was the sixth of seven children born to John and Jane Clemens. His mother would tell him later that he came into the world with the arrival of Halley’s Comet, a cosmic event that occurred every 75 years, and so she predicted greatness for her premature and sickly infant son, whose survival in those challenging times was not typical. TWAIN: “I was born the 30th of November, 1835, in the almost invisible village of Florida, Monroe County, Missouri. The village contained a hundred people and I increased the population by 1 per cent. It is more than many of the best men in history could have done for a town. It may not be modest in me to refer to this but it is true. There is no record of a person doing as much—not even Shakespeare. But I did it for Florida and it shows that I could have done it for any place—even London, I suppose.” (Autobiography) Huck Finn: Jimmy Buffett; Narrator: Garrison Keillor; Mark Twain: Clint Eastwood; Background Score: “Comet Ride” performed by Andy Leftwich Track 2: When Halley Came To Jackson Artist: Emmylou Harris Written by: Mary Chapin Carpenter Published by: ©1990 EMI April Music / Getarealjob Music (ASCAP) All rights controlled & administered by EMI April Music, Inc.
