NashvilleEar is branching out into new territory

The NashvilleEar has started to do a few different things. I am working with 6Minor Films to build a movie about Nashville songwriters. These are songwriters who are not native to the area. Each songwriter left their homes and towns and family to move to Nashville to become a professional songwriter. Each has a story of success and getting beat down. The different conceptions on the songwriter community were unreal good. If you ever wanted to be a songwriter in Nashville this is a movie you need to see. It is titled "Road to Music City". It will be released in the spring of 2014. Another fun thing I have been doing is working with a bluegrass band. Reno & Harrell are one of the best bluegrass bands in the country. Their first CD "Reno Bound" came out at #15 on the "Bluegrass Today" charts. I am managing and booking them for bluegrass festivals in 2014.
