This week on The Co-Write, we sit down with the great Ben Danaher. Ben is one of the strongest songwriters going right now, and his new project, "Still Feel Lucky", out September 7th, will surely separate him from the field. Growing up in Texas, Ben was always around music. His dad played in bands, and his older brother Brett has been a stalwart in the Pat Green band since Pat's earliest days burning through the Texas asphalt. Ben began his career like many others, assembling a band and touring heavily before realizing there was something more for him that being another bar band playing whatever college town had an opening. Since moving to Nashville, Ben has continued to refine his songwriting voice in a truly remarkable way. You can pre-order Ben's newest album now. Just go to your favorite music purchasing platform and do the thing. For now, enjoy this conversation!

WE DID IT FRIENDS! We are now 6 for 6 when it comes to host artists from the Red River Songwriter's Festival being guests on The Co-Write. It feels good, doesn't it. Today, we bring you a sit down with the great Brandy Zdan. Brandy was kind enough to take the time to sit down with us during the Red River Songwriter's Festival, and it was a really fun chat. We talk about her beginnings in Canada, the difference between the Canadian music scene and the US music scene, what led to her move to Austin, and subsequently Nashville, her upcoming tour with Buddy Guy, and her new album, "Secreteer", out May 4th.
