Brandy Clark
The Nashville, Tennessee-based Brandy Clark, signed by Warner Brothers Records out of Los Angeles, received her first of an impressive six career Grammy nominations in 2013 in the Best Country Song category for co-writing the Miranda Lambert No. 1 hit “Mama’s Broken Heart.” Her talent as a storyteller has quickly propelled her into critical acclaim as one of Nashville's best tunesmiths, subsequently writing songs for Sheryl Crow, Billy Currington, Reba McEntire, Kacey Musgraves, LeAnn Rimes, Darius Rucker and The Band Perry, to name a few. In 2013, Clark independently released her debut album, 12 Stories, which was embraced by music lovers and critics alike and garnered two Grammy nominations including Best New Artist and Best Country Album. 12 Stories went on to be named Best Album of 2013 by The Boston Globe, New York Magazine, NPR, New York Post and more. In 2014, Clark won the CMA Award for Song of the Year (“Follow Your Arrow”), which she co-wrote with Shane McAnally and Musgraves, in addition to being nominated for New Artist of the Year. Her sophomore album, Big Day In A Small Town, was released in 2016 and garnered two Grammy nominations for Best Country Album and Best Country Solo Performance (“Love Can Go To Hell”) and once again topped critics’ “Best Of” lists including NPR, Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly and Billboard, among others, cementing Clark as one of Country Music's most talented artists, beloved by fans, critics and fellow entertainers alike. Famed music critic and author, Ann Powers, calls Clark “a storyteller of the highest caliber.” This past year, Clark has been honing her craft on the road playing with the likes of Brandi Carlile, Willie Nelson, Sugarland and Dwight Yoakam.
