Each year, the Songwriter Showcase at World of Bluegrass draws in some of the best up-and-coming songwriters in bluegrass and roots music. With over 60 applications this year, only ten are chosen to perform their song during World of Bluegrass. It is a great event each year that provides a platform for songwriters to get their songs heard on a wider scale!
This year, the hosts for the Songwriter Showcase are The Darrell Brothers! With a viral, side-splitting hit “Mountain Twerker” the Darrells know how to craft a witty song that can capture attention like no one else.
Be there in person at the Songwriter Showcase on Wednesday, September 30 at 9:40a.m. on the Workshop Stage in the Raleigh Convention Center.
The invited songwriters and their songs are:
Lisa Bushman, Joe Newberry & Dale Ann Bradley “Grandpa's Overalls”
Louisa Branscomb “Anyway”
Andrew Preston “The Mountain Wayfarers”
Carley Arrowood “Jesus Drive the Train”
Teresa Neal “Ain’t No Good Goodbye”
