Country artist Eric Paslay delivers a powerful punch as a renowned Platinum-selling, GRAMMY nominated hit songwriter, artist, and performer. He has celebrated five number one hits, with four of those ranked among the “Top 100 Songs of the Decade” by Country Aircheck, including the number one spot on that chart with “Barefoot Blue Jean Night” as recorded by Jake Owen.
The Temple, Texas native has earned numerous songwriter award nominations including GRAMMY’s Best Country Song, ACM’s Song of the Year twice, and the CMA Song of The Year, as well as an artist GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Duo/Group Performance for “The Driver,” a collaboration with friends Charles Kelley and Dierks Bentley.
Eric continues to see success as a songwriter, having co-penned Keith Urban’s hit “Wild Hearts,” and his latest album, a compilation of reimagined versions of Eric’s biggest hits as a writer and artist, Even If It Breaks Your Barefoot Friday Night, was released in 2022. He also released a new EP in December called Perfect Stranger. A true artist’s artist, USA Today has called Paslay “flat out-brilliant” and American Songwriter named him an influencer of country music.
"Each year, the Songwriter’s Series is carefully curated to feature diverse styles of music and storytelling,” said IV Whitman, executive vice president of Marketing for Scenic Land Company. “Since we started the series four years ago, I am always amazed how unique and full of surprises each artist is. No two shows are ever alike.”
