Billy Yates announces a new show “Songwriters in the Round”

Billy Yates announced a new show that will take place in Brenson, MS. “Songwriters in the Round” will kick off at the Americana Theatre April 6th, 2018

The first three shows will feature two of Nashville’s most gifted songwriters, Kerry Kurt Phillips, whose songwriting credits include: “Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox (If I Die)” (Joe Diffie), “Down On The Farm” (Tim McGraw), and “She Let Herself Go” (George Strait), along with Wynn Varble, star of the hit TV series, Joey and Rory, whose songwriting credits include: “Have You Forgotten” (Darryl Worley), “Waitin’ On A Woman” (Brad Paisley), and “A Little More Country Than That” (Easton Corbin).

This unscripted, unplugged, and unbelievable 90-minute show will bring the best in performing songwriter experiences to the stage, where the award-winning/Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter, Billy Yates, will introduce the audience to the world of performing songwriters, as two other hit songwriter/artists from Nashville will join Billy on stage each week to casually tell the stories behind the songs they play. This relaxed and unscripted show allows the audience to enjoy the spirit of what makes acoustic performances of songs, by the ones who wrote them, so great

Each show will include a meet and greet, and the audience will have a chance to personally “thank a songwriter” . . . the unseen heroes behind the music of our lives.

This is a chance for fans and country music enthusiast to get to know the stories and the people behind some of the biggest songs of our time. Most of the time we listen to a song and really just want to know the inspiration behind it, how it came about. Well this is the best chance to find out, with tickets on sale and an incredible line up of songwriters already established it will sell out fast!
