Jessica Phillips  |  July 27, 2009


The outspoken Charlie Daniels and his ace band are performing at the Wildhorse Saloon in Nashville, TN on Thursday, August 27th as part of the Nashville Songwriter Association International's benefit series. This marks the first time that the Charlie Daniels band has performed a full concert in Nashville since 2005's July 4th Riverfront Celebration.

"NSAI is honored that an American icon of Charlie Daniels' stature recognizes our hard work in legislative advocacy on behalf of all songwriters. No one represents our motto, "IT ALL BEGINS WITH A SONG" better than the man whose music has crossed so many boundaries and genres to mark the moments of our lives," said NSAI President, Grammy-nominated songwriter Steve Bogard. "The CDB's help comes at a critical time in the music industry and will assist NSAI in continuing our important mission."

Tickets to the event are available at the Wildhorse Saloon's boxoffice or at Ticketmaster.
