Levi Lowrey
It has always been my belief that since the days of King David, God has picked on songwriters. Temptation, soaring highs and the deepest hardships travel parallel to a troubadour’s life, much like the timeless lyrics they pluck from the aether. Through car wrecks and cancer, with questions unanswered, Levi Lowrey sat down and had a long conversation with himself, the result being his first independent release, My Crazy Head.
After a turbulent last 5 years, Levi Lowrey has reached the top of Country Music’s charts by penning “Colder Weather,” graced the stages of the Ryman, Red Rocks and Madison Square Garden, toured internationally with Country Music’s premier acts, and released two stellar albums, all while dealing with the personal tragedies affiliated with the Songwriter’s Curse. In late 2014, he took several month leave from the spotlight to tend to family, build some callouses back driving nails and concentrate on his craft and approach to the music industry, in general.
John Driskell Hopkins
Best known for his role as a founding member, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter for the Grammy Award Winning group Zac Brown Band, John Driskell Hopkins (Hop) co-wrote, with Zac Brown, Wyatt Durette and Shawn Mullins, the Zac Brown Band’s third single: “Toes” from their 2008 major-label debut The Foundation. It was the second number one single for the band. Hopkins also co-wrote, with Zac Brown, Wyatt Durette and Sonia Leigh, the second single from the band’s third major-label album “Uncaged” entitled “Goodbye in Her Eyes.” Hopkins co-wrote the band’s first number one hit on the Billboard Mainstream Rock (chart) “Heavy Is the Head (Zac Brown Band song)” which featured Chris Cornell and was the second single from their fourth major label studio album “Jekyll + Hyde” released in 2015.
