Nashville Songsmiths

In-Depth Interviews with #1 Country Songwriters

De: Ty Hager

Narrado por: Ty Hager, Rivers Rutherford, Walt Aldridge, Steve Dean, Anthony L. Smith

Songwriter, signed recording artist and veteran radio broadcaster Ty Hager interviewed hit country songwriters for his radio show "Behind the Hits", which aired on radio stations in the U.S. and world-wide on the American Forces Radio Network in 2011. Now he's compiled those interviews for Nashville Songsmiths - In-Depth Interviews with #1 Country Songwriters. You'll hear the stories behind such phenomenal hits as "The Dance," "I Swear," "Independence Day," and many, many more. You'll also get insights into the music business and country songwriting - the harsh realities of rejection and the rewards of perseverance in the highly competitive world of Music Row, where success is fleeting and quickly forgotten, and where "you're only as good as your next hit." This audio version features the complete interviews with the songwriters themselves!

Very Insightful!

This book covers many of the questions every serious musician longs to ask. Absolute besutigul design. Happy with my purchase.

Entertaining and insightful!

Great interviews with top songwriters and a funny, yet tuned in interviewer. Hated that it ended so soon.

A MUST READ for Pro Songwriters!!

AMAZING BOOK FULL OF TERRIFIC INTERVIEWS! FOR ANYONE SEEKING TO BE A PROFESSIONAL SONGWRITER OR JUST A MUSIC LOVER WANTING TO HEAR THE STORIES BEHIND THE MUSIC. INCREDIBLE!!!

Great insight

Great stories, insight and humor. I appreciate what it takes for songwriters to create. Well done Ty!

Loved loved loved listening to this book!

What a joy and informative experience this book was. I hated to see it end. I would love if Ty would continue these kind of interviews with some of the even older song writers and performers. I don't think I can get enough. Thanks Ty!

Great Songwriter Stories!

These interviews were very enjoyable listening! I always love hearing the story behind the song, and the struggles songwriters are willing to go through for the love of their craft!

My only criticism is that there was only one female interview.

A Must for Country Music Lovers

I bought this book for my daughter and I to listen to as we drove from Colorado to Nashville where she’s going to college for audio engineering. I think I loved it more than she did! If you love country music from the 80s and 90s you will love to hear the stories behind your favorite songs and gain so much respect for these magicians in the music industry! It was also important for my daughter to hear that overnight success is often a myth, but that the hard work is worth it when you love what you do. This is a fabulous audiobook!
