The Pines Theater 2016 season continues Tuesday, March 8 with The Music City

Hit-Makers, a group of elite Nashville songwriters who perform and share the

stories behind some of the biggest hits they've penned for today's most

iconic country stars.

 

"If you love country music, you'll definitely want to see this show by 'the

most famous people you never heard of," said Tara Watson-Watkins, executive

director of the Lufkin Convention and Visitors Bureau and artistic director

for The Pines. "This is a group of incredibly talented songwriters who are

responsible for some of the most popular songs on the radio, and it's

fascinating to hear how those songs began as ideas and were lovingly crafted

into giant hits."

 

The list of artists who have turned to the songwriters in The Music City

Hit-Makers is a who's who of country music's biggest stars: Reba McEntire,

Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert, Kenny Chesney, Martina McBride, Rascal

Flatts, Lady Antebellum, Luke Bryan, Jason Aldean, Blake Shelton, Dierks

Bentley and more have tapped members of the Music City Hit-Makers to pen

songs for them. 

 

The Music City Hit-Makers' performance is accentuated by the orchestral

scores of Charles Judge, arranger and conductor for Carrie Underwood's

performances with the Hollywood Bowl & Ravinia Festival Orchestras and Blake

Shelton's Not-So-Family Christmas Special on NBC.
