From Kentucky, Lee Miller graduated from Kentucky University with a degree in music theory and composition and moved to Nashville directly after graduation to start his career as a songwriter.

Twelve years later, Blackhawk released “Days of America,” and Lee had his first chart single. Later that year, Joe Nichols released “The Impossible,” and Terri Clark released “I Just Wanna Be Mad.” Both of those songs received one million radio plays.

In high school, Lauren Hungate chose a music class for her required art elective it actually changed her life, although she didn't know it at the time. She just knew that she liked playing the piano and didn’t know what to do with it. Attending Lee University, she first majored in church music and then switched to studying the music business. Just like that required arts class in high school, the first songs Lauren wrote were for a required project in college. After graduating, she worked behind the scene in the music business for a few years, until she quit to focus on writing songs.

Jamie Floyd, singer and songwriter, writes country songs that aren’t always typical country songs. That makes sense, once you hear her sing. Her voice isn’t exactly a country voice, but a mix of country and blues that slides and hops between octaves. Some of her songs are supremely dance-able, and she totally rocks the techno dance version of her song “Sad Summer.”

Mick Fury moved to Hollywood to play and to perform, but having homeless women jump him TWICE put it all into the perspective of which way is up. Mick moved back to Syracuse, playing with the band Silent Fury, with a hard rock sound, and began opening for big acts. Mick's tongue-in-cheek humor reflects his wry awareness of the best way to take lessons from adversity. Next landing in Nashville, Mick found the entrance ramp to country music, and became a songwriter for movies and he reformed his band with a new album.  

Chances are, country music lovers will sing along when Wendell Lee Mobley takes the stage.

From Ohio, Wendell moved to Nashville and performed as a guitar layer with Jack Greene and Alabama while he wrote songs and worked to get them in front of the right people. Once he had songs recorded by Kenny Rogers and Joe Diffie, he switched to songwriting full-time. 

From the Bluebird Café in Nashville in 2005 listening to a songwriter when the light bulb went off in his head and he thought, "I can do this," Matt hit the songwriting scene in Nashville and couldn't be stopped. In his sophomore year in college Matt began writing music for TV and film, and soon found his niche in country music, with his commentaries on the dance of interpersonal pursuits, such as the fellow who went into a bar and "threw this heart on a stool," and drinking, dancing, and partying, as well as agonizing love.
