Beavers also co-wrote Bentley's first #1 hit entitled "What Was I Thinkin'," which earned him an Achievement Award from the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame at its 2004 ceremony. This distinguished honor is given each year to 10 songs chosen by NSAI's Professional Songwriters Division using the criteria of "The Songs I Wish I'd Written."
A native of Waco, Texas, Beavers' songs have also been recorded by such BMI country superstars as Tim McGraw, Brooks & Dunn and Lonestar. He is currently the bass player and bandleader for Lee Ann Womack.
