ASWA NEWS

American Songwriters Association.com recently attended the CMT Awards in Nashville along with some of country music's finest. Outstanding live production and performances seem to be the topic of conversation this week.

As well, the scouting of local talent, brought up new comer names such as Rachel Holder seen at the Cadillac Ranch, Johnny T. and band at the Stage On Broadway, and Les Richardson seen at the Wild Horse Saloon.

We wish them all the best and salute each performance for being worthy of mention.
