Amid the pandemic, songwriters have been hit hard, with many left without work. Tim Clarke, the VP of Content and Audience for Cox Media Group, noted that Broadcasters have “outstanding relationships with this community,” and they’re “honored to join together in creating this special to celebrate and support these talented individuals who are the heart of country music.”

Additionally, BMI President & CEO Mike O’Neill said that the company is proud to partner with the local radio stations “to support the songwriters whose music brings us together in good times and in bad.”

“Songwriters are often considered the smallest of small businesses, and like so many small businesses, they are deeply impacted by this pandemic,” O’Neill said. “We’re so grateful that some of BMI’s top country music creators are lending their voices to support this incredibly important cause.”

Throughout the event, listeners will have the option to donate to the MusiCares COVID-19 Relief Fund for songwriters by texting SONGWRITERS to 41444 or by donating online here.
