Recorded at Sound Emporium Studios and helmed by Nashville native and acclaimed 2x GRAMMY-winning artist, songwriter and producer Daniel Tashian (Burt Bacharach, Kacey Musgraves), Songblazers couldn’t have been made anywhere but the Music City. The album features the cast of the show along with a host of country music’s finest players. From early 20th Century country spirituals to “Achy Breaky Heart”, by way of “New Muleskinner Blues” and “Copperhead Road,” Songblazers is a true journey into country music.
