Cash, who was named the Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum’s 2015 Artist-in-Residence and whose chart toppers include “Seven Year Ache” and “My Baby Thinks He’s a Train,” among others, will be inducted in the songwriter/artist category, while Stevens, who wrote Eddie Rabbitt’s legendary “I Love a Rainy Night” and “Drivin’ My Life Away” as well as Dr. Hook’s “When You’re in Love with a Beautiful Woman” among other blockbusters, is being honored in the veteran songwriter category. Mark James, the scribe behind B.J. Thomas’ iconic “Hooked on a Feeling,” Elvis Presley’s “Suspicious Minds” and Willie Nelson’s “Always on My Mind,” to name a few, will be inducted in the songwriter category.

The 45th Anniversary Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame Gala will be held at the Music City Center in Nashville.
