Tin Pan South favorites Bob DiPiero and Jeffrey Steele led a round at the TRUE Music Room and Bar, with Blake Griffith, Adam James and a few guests. As always, the round was a hilarious jam session between the two songwriting giants and the two newcomers.

They played a medley of their hits, like “Gone” (Montgomery Gentry), DiPiero’s “Southern Voice” (Tim McGraw),”American Made” (Oak Ridge Boys), and “The Church on Cumberland Road” (Shenandoah), and Steele’s “Speed” (Montgomery Gentry), “International Harvester” (Craig Morgan), and Rascal Flatt’s “These Days” and “What Hurts The Most.”

Stephen Wilson Jr. was a special guest stand out, playing a nostalgic, slightly dark original “Year To Be Young (1994), inspired by his upbringing in the corn fields of Indiana. Wilson Jr. was incredibly talented, and his voice and musicianship held its own against the country music heavyweights.
