Join Bob Harris for a special CMA Songwriters night from Nashville, with Ashley McBryde, Cam, Brett Young and Shy Carter playing their hit songs in an intimate acoustic setting, and telling the stories behind their creation.

Produced in association with the Country Music Association - and recently recorded under strict Covid safe precautions in Nashville - this unique programme gives Radio 2 and ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Sounds listeners a rare opportunity to go behind the scenes to discover first hand just what it is that goes into the creation of a hit song.

And you couldn't wish for better guides than these. Between them, Ashley McBryde, Cam, Brett Young and Shy Carter have been responsible for some of the most distinctive and popular songs of the modern country era, and songs that are firm favourites with audiences the world over.

Radio 2 Celebrates Country

With the C2C: Country to Country festival postponed for its second year, Radio 2 uses the festival weekend to celebrate more than 40 years of classic country concerts from the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ archive, including highlights from past C2C performances.

Radio 2 will also broadcast a brand new, exclusive session recorded last month in Nashville as part of the CMA Songwriters series, featuring performances from some of Country music’s leading contemporary songwriters.

All the concerts for ‘Radio 2 Celebrates Country’, including performances from Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Brad Paisley and Charley Pride, will be available for 30 days on ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Sounds
