NSAI Welcomes 2022 Board Of Directors

The Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI) recently welcomed its 2022 Board of Directors, including newly elected member Jamie Moore, who began his two-year term.

Moore is a four-time Grammy nominated songwriter and producer from Muscle Shoals, Alabama. A multi-instrumentalist, he came to Nashville and quickly began rising to the top of Nashville’s songwriting community. He has a catalog of multi-genre hits and songs recorded by artists such as Carrie Underwood, Toby Mac, Chris Lane, Bren Joy, Blake Shelton, Florida Georgia Line, Tim McGraw and Morgan Wallen. In 2016, he experienced his first No. 1 with Florida Georgia Line’s “May We All,” and in 2020 had his second No. 1 with Wallen’s “Chasin’ You.”

Current board members who were re-elected to an additional two-year term include Steve Bogard, Jeff Cohen, Chris DeStefano, J.T. Harding, Byron Hill, Josh Kear, Jon Nite, Liz Rose, Jenn Schott and Emily Shackelton. Roger Brown and Lee Thomas Miller were re-elected to one-year terms as Legislative Co-Chairs, Rhett Akins and Caitlyn Smith were re-elected to one-year terms to the Artist Writer board positions, and Brett James was re-elected to a one-year term to the Industry Liaison position.

They are joined by existing board members Kelly Archer, Sarah Buxton, Corey Crowder, Jessie Jo Dillon, Tim Nichols, Josh Osborne, Rivers Rutherford, Anthony Smith, Sharon Vaughn, Laura Veltz and Troy Verges, who all have one year remaining on their term.

“We want to thank these 27 incredible songwriters for their time and commitment to NSAI’s mission,” says Bogard, NSAI Board President. “There are many challenges still ahead in order for American songwriters to achieve fair compensation in the era of the digital delivery of music. This group has offered their time and talents to move this work forward.”
