JAMES OTTO James Otto has the Biggest Voice in Country Music, and is known for his soulful, chart-topping hit “Just Got Started Lovin’ You.” From Grammy-nominated songs like “In Color” to hits for Jimmy Buffett and Zac Brown Band, Otto’s country-soul sound and songwriting talent are undeniable. Two-time Grammy nominee and ACM and CMA award-winning singer-songwriter’s breakthrough hit, “Just Got Started Lovin’ You,” topped the country chart and was the Most Played Country Single of the Year in 2008. He co-wrote Jamey Johnson's hit "In Color," which was nominated for a second Grammy and won both CMA and ACM's Song of the Year and also penned songs for John Anderson, Trace Adkins, Randy Owen and many others including Zac Brown Band hit "No Hurry." Defining the modern sound of Country Soul, Otto’s bluesy, muscular voice and dynamic stage presence have earned him the respect of industry and country music fans around the world. D. VINCENT WILLIAMS The unsung heroes of the Nashville music scene, songwriters seldom command the spotlight that performing artists do, but hit-maker D. Vincent Williams is a worthy exception to the rule. With undeniable talent as a gifted–and chart-topping–songwriter, backed by years of performing experience, this hit-maker is ready to take center stage in every way. “I was singing before I could really talk, music just came naturally to me,” remembers Williams. “Songwriting is no different. I hear the melody in my head and then take notes of the pictures that come to mind. The ability to sing, play and write has given me an unlimited freedom of expression.” Over the course of his remarkable songwriting career, Williams has landed cuts on albums that have sold more than 15 million copies, including “I’m Movin’ On” by Rascal Flatts, Ty Herndon’s “Hands Of A Working Man” and James Otto’s “Just Got Started Lovin’ You.” He has had songs recorded by esteemed artists including Kenny Rogers, Randy Travis, Reba McEntire, Ronnie Milsap, Jason Aldean, and Lee Ann Womack. “I didn’t choose songwriting, it chose me,” says Williams. DAVE KENNEDY Dave Kennedy is a storyteller above all else, and it’s easy to see why. His songs paint a cinematic portrait of America as his characters journey through love, heartbreak, humor, sin, redemption, revenge and perhaps even a few of the songwriter’s own footsteps along the way. Bringing these songs to life is a voice so soaring and powerful you can’t help but be swept away into his world by the end of the first chorus. He navigates his way through each story and each world with a dynamic presence of both strength and subtlety that appreciates both the peaks and the valleys, the highways and the backroads, the loves lost and lingering in his mind. It’s for all these reasons that Dave has a reputation as one of Nashville’s most respected songwriters and artists, and why artists like TRAVIS TRITT, RILEY GREEN, WHISKEY MYERS, DRAKE WHITE, LARRY FLEET and others are eager to continue writing and performing with Dave Kennedy.
