Every once in a while we get a fan submission that goes above and beyond the casual mention of an artist they love. That was the case when Tyler Hendricks reached out to us on Facebook to make sure we didn’t miss out on young talent Jackson Wendell.

For their third and final—for now—installation of The Songwriter Tapes, decorated songwriters Luke Laird, Lori McKenna, and Barry Dean are yet again demonstrating the timelessness of a great song. Each volume of The Songwriter Tapes includes brand new recordings of three songs that even part-time country music fans will be familiar with, if not already fans of, and one tune that has yet to see the light of day. Choosing the four songs for each of the songwriters to sing was a collaborative process. And while it may have been difficult to narrow it down to 12 tracks after more than 65 collective years in country music, the result is a timeless anthology of career-defining songs from as far back as 2004 and as recent as 2020.

“I think this was a great example of what people are going to get on this album – some unique ideas and titles. I don’t know how much that matters to other artists. Back when we had CDs and cassette tapes and the titles were on the back, before I would listen to anything, be it some album I bought or a list of 20 songs I’d get pitched, I would read the titles and see if anything jumped off the page at me. When you read a title, you think, “Oh that’s about this,” and then when it surprises you, that’s always fun for me. SONGWRITERS: Justin Moore, Paul DiGiovanni, Randy Montana, Jeremy Stover HERE’S WHAT JUSTIN SAYS ABOUT THE SONG:
