Event

Nashville Unplugged w/Special Guest Earl Bud Lee
In numerous venues on any given night of a Nashville week, you can catch a group of singer/songwriters in the round, talking about their songs and sharing insight into the creative process of working behind the lights to help make other people famous. This has been the case for years.

Aaron Benward is one of those singer/songwriters. He knew audiences at these casual Nashville shows love this peek behind the artistic curtain. Being a creative sort beyond writing songs, Benward thought other audiences in other places would take to this concept with equal acceptance. So, he put on his producer's hat and created "Nashville Unplugged: The Story Behind the Song," and took it on the road.

"The concept is an old one that's been around for years in Nashville," said Benward in a conversation we had with him last week. "The basic premise is to let audiences and country music fans see the true heroes of the music they lovethe songwriters. Many fans think their favorite singer wrote the songs they love, but in reality the songs more than likely were written by someone they've never heard of sitting in a room somewhere, before making it to the ears of the audience."

This art of pulling a song out of thin air is fascinating because each song has it's own backstory. That is the turf the show "Nashville Unplugged" cultivates.

"It's three guys on three stools with three guitars and three mics in an improvised setting," said Benward. It's kind of like "Who's Line Is It Anyway" but about, and with, country music. The songwriters are extremely creative and funny. They jump on each other's songs with a spirit of creativity and community. There is no set list of how the show should flow. We let the discovery happen along with the audience."

According to Benward, once audiences catch the show and hear the songs sung by the people who actually wrote them, the word of mouth creates the buzz that has resulted in the sellouts "Nashville Unplugged" has enjoyed.

"Most of the songwriters had dreams of becoming a singing artist themselves," said Benward. "But there is no rhyme or reason who becomes an A-level artist and who doesn't. It's a lot of luck. And the people who wrote the hit songs actually sing their songs better than the artist who made them famous. And not only are they great singers but they are also some of the greatest musicians you'll hear."
