Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame awards- Mac MacAnally

Post by wpmcsg »

Did anyone see this last night? I got a voice mail this morning that he and Kenny Chesney were featured.......

A quick google search didn't come up with anything; anybody know if the awards show is going to be replayed?

Way to go Mac!

Nashville Songwriter Induction was on Sunday and ASCAP Awards on Monday. Don't know if anything will e rerun.

There is a slide show at that link.

The following night, J.D. Souther received a similar career achievement honor from ASCAP in accepting the agency’s Golden Note Award. One of the contributors to the Southern California sound of the 1970s, which has had a direct influence on contemporary country, J.D. was honored with performances of his material from some of Nashville’s best. Lee Ann Womack sang “Faithless Love,” Rodney Crowell covered “New Kid In Town” and Love And Theft captured “You’re Only Lonely.”
