This October, alongside John Anderson, Paul Craft and Tom Douglas, I’ll be inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. We’ll be joining the 192 existing members of this elite organization when we are officially inducted during the 44th Anniversary Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame Dinner & Induction Ceremony on Sunday, October 5th at the Music City Center. Tickets for the event are $250 each.  Select seating is available to the public and may be purchased (as available) by contacting Executive Director Mark Ford at hoftix@nashvillesongwritersfoundation.com or 615-460-6556.

To celebrate the occasion, I’ll be appearing at the Grand Ole Opry the night before (October 4th). Tickets for the Opry are available here.

Needless to say I’m beyond thrilled and will be humbled to be in the company of my heroes on both nights. When I moved to Nashville in 1987 I couldn’t have imagined this. I’m so grateful to the NSHoF and the Opry for what I already know will be one of the most memorable weekends of my life.
