BACKSTAGE NASHVILLE! DAYTIME HIT SONGWRITERS SHOW featuring Aaron Raitiere , Danny Myrick , Dave Pahanish & Ray Stephenson with Julia Hutchinson

  • BACKSTAGE NASHVILLE! DAYTIME HIT SONGWRITERS SHOW

    Country

  • Aaron Raitiere

    Country

    Aaron Raitiere is a lyricist, performer, and visual artist from Danville, Kentucky. 

    He shared a 2019 Grammy for co-writing “I’ll Never Love Again” with Lady Gaga, Hillary Lindsay, and Natalie Hemby for A Star Is Born. (He co-wrote it in about 30 minutes on his first-ever trip to Los Angeles.) He’s also placed cuts with Miranda Lamber, Ashley McBryde, Lori McKenna, The Oak Ridge Boys, The Lone Bellow, Randy Rojers Band, Chris Shiflett, Midland, Brent Cobb, Shooter Jennings and more.

    When a few friends offered to make a debut record on him, Raitiere simply agreed to go along with it. In the four years since that first session for what would become Single Wide Dreamer, the auspicious project has retained its casual charm even as its guest list gradually expanded. Anderson East and Miranda Lambert, who co-produced the album, now appear alongside Nashville musicians like Dave Cobb, Natalie Hemby, Ashley Monroe, and Waylon Payne, as well as Robert Randolph, Foy Vance, and Bob Weir.

  • Danny Myrick

    Country

    Danny Myrick grew up in the gulf coast town of Pascagoula, Mississippi the son of a Baptist Minister father and church pianist mother. From an early age he honed his skills as a musician playing bass and singing in his family's gospel band, which recorded their first album when Danny was 7 years old. Danny's dad also promoted local gospel concerts and as a result Danny had the opportunity to be on stage almost every weekend opening for virtually every major gospel quartet as well as playing numerous times weekly at his local church. He got his first cut at age 17 when the Dixie Melody Boys quartet recorded the 12 week 1 song, "Jesus Is The Light".

    After high school, Danny moved to Nashville and attended Belmont University until he ran out of money. After a few years of striking out in the music business, Danny joined with best friend Chris Marion to create Western Flyer, a 6 man vocal group patterned in the style of 70's country rock bands the Eagles and America. He was lead vocalist, bassist and principal songwriter for the band. Western Flyer made two cd's and had several top 40 hits including the top 20 song, "What Will You Do With M-E?" They also made 3 videos including the critically acclaimed "Cherokee Highway" which dealt with racial violence in 1960's Mississippi. They became the first non-African American artist to perform at the Martin Luther King Day festivities in Atlanta in 1995. Western Flyer disbanded later in the 1990's and after a few years out of the business Danny decided in 2002 to recommit himself to songwriting and performing.

     

    One day he ran into an old friend, Jeffrey Steele, who had now become one of country music's hottest songwriters, at a local Nashville Starbucks and that meeting was the beginning of a new phase in Danny's career. With Jeffrey's support, after a few months, Danny signed a publishing contract with Windswept Pacific. After a 3 year stint with Windswept, Danny inked a new deal with Steele's Soulride Music in 2005, where he had numerous cuts including Craig Morgan's "International Harvester" and Big and Rich's, "Loud," which is also the theme song for CMT's Gone Country. Danny now writes for the exciting new Nashville company Root 49 Music and recently celebrated having 2009's most played country song, "She's Country" by Jason Aldean. He also wrote the Gloriana single, "How Far Do You Wanna Go." In addition to his cuts as a songwriter, Danny has also provided background vocals for numerous hit country artists including Keith Anderson, Blake Shelton and Montgomery Gentry and is currently working as a writer and/or producer with several incredibly talented artists including Alice Peacock ("Bliss"), Ann Marie Boskovich, Kate and Kacey, the Jane Dear Girls, Bridgette Tatum (his co-writer on "She's Country") and Nick Hoffman.

  • Dave Pahanish

    Contemporary Country

    Dave Pahanish is a 30 year veteran of the music industry working as a musician, artist, songwriter, singer, performer, and producer. After spending 15 years performing across his home-town southwestern Pittsburgh Pennsylvania area, after visits to New York and LA seeking the best place to grow his many talents, Dave made it to Nashville. Within three weeks of landing in Nashville in late 2006, Dave was offered three publishing deals and settled with a company owned by songwriters Hillary Lindsey, Dallas Davidson and Cole Wright.

    Dave Pahanish is now a three time #1 hit Billboard Country songwriter and a hit producer with 6 charting singles. Dave penned Tobey Keith’s “American Ride”, Keith Urban's "Without You" and Jimmy Wayne’s “Do You Believe Me Now?” ( co-produced by Dave as well)

    Urban chose the song “Without You” because of how closely the lyrics fit in with his own life stating, "It's the most autobiographical song I never wrote.” Pahanish wrote the song after meeting his wife’s family for the first time without realizing any similarities to Urban’s life. The song became Urban's 12th No. 1 single.

    Notable cuts by Dave include Tim McGraw's “Right Back Atcha Babe" and "The One That Got Away" (also recorded by Lila McCann)- #12 Billboard single “I Will” by Jimmy Wayne, Emily West's “Completely Yours” and Collin Raye’s “Divine Everlasting Love”.

    As a performer/artist, Dave is 2 year veteran of the Country Throwdown Tour with Willie Nelson, Eric Church, Little Big Town, Jamie Johnson, Eric Paslay, Montgomery Gentry, Eli Young Band and many others.

    Dave still performs regularly and has released 7 albums to date, all available on iTunes and other streaming sites. He has released a video for the song "The One That Got Away" from his 1997 album Shine, this song went on to be recorded by numerous other artists including Tim McGraw, and Lila McCann.

    Most recently Dave has been producing other artists including Jake Hoot current winner of the hit tv show "The Voice". Dave co-wrote the song “Better Off Without You” with Jake that solidified Jakes win on the Voice and was #1 on iTunes country . Currently working on the sophomore album for George Shingleton as well as proving and writing with other artists.

  • Julia Hutchinson

    Country

    Julia Hutchinson is a Nashville-based performing artist and songwriter whose distinctive sound is a blend of country, pop, and folk. A Boston native, Julia’s musical journey began at age five when she started piano lessons and quickly fell in love with the power of music. Influenced by legends like Elton John and The Beatles, her songwriting combines the emotional storytelling of country with the modern energy of pop, resulting in a sound that's been described as “Gracie Abrams meets country music.”

     

    Since relocating to Nashville in 2021, Julia has made her mark on the city's live music scene, performing at iconic venues such as 3rd & Lindsley, The Bluebird Cafe, and the Schermerhorn Symphony Center. Her songs have not only resonated with audiences but have also earned her cuts with other artists and features in short films. In 2024, Julia was selected for the prestigious Johnny Mercer Writer’s Project, an opportunity that further sharpened her craft and connected her with some of Nashville's top-tier songwriters. 

     

    Currently, Julia is celebrating the release of her debut EP “Here We Are Again”. The project continues to sharpen her country-pop flare with three singles and two additional tracks. When not recording, she is training for a half marathon and going on hikes with friends! With her powerful vocals and compelling songwriting, Julia is excited to continue pushing the boundaries of country music, weaving in elements of pop, folk, and a coastal flare to create something truly unique.
