BMI recently returned to the beach with a slew of Music City's finest hit-makers and most promising newcomers for the 2nd Annual Destin Songwriters Festival at the Hog's Breath Saloon. Held June 20 and 21 in Destin, the event featured a stacked lineup of hit singer/songwriters including Kyle Jacobs (Garth Brooks' "More Than A Memory"), Joe Leathers (Craig Morgan's "Tough"), Kylie Sackley (LeAnn Rimes' "Nothing 'Bout Love Makes Sense"), Chas Sandford (John Waites' "Missing You") and Nicole Witt (Terri Clark's "She Didn't Have Time"), along with auspicious new troubadours Seth Jones, Tiffany Goss and Todd Taylor.
Sponsored by Big Tractor Music, the Country Music Association, Curb Music Publishing and Cherry Lane Music Publishing Company, Inc., the festival introduced music fans to songwriters behind the hits during two summer nights of sultry tunes, performed live in Nashville's signature in-the-round showcase style.
