BMI honored songwriter/executive Erv Woolsey for writing George Strait’s “I Can Still Make Cheyenne,” which has earned more than one million broadcast performances. Co-written with Aaron Baker, the now Platinum-certified song appeared on Strait’s album, Clear Blue Sky, in 1996.

In addition to being a songwriter, Woolsey has been a Music Row player for more than 30 years when he broke into the business managing a young and determined Strait. He currently manages Strait, Lee Ann Womack (with 377 Management), Ian Munsick (with Not A Public Figure Management) and more.

CMT Crossroads with For King + Country and Jimmie Allen premiered on Feb. 28 on CMT. The broadcast began at 10 p.m. / 9 p.m. cst, with an immediate encore during the following hour.

Filmed in front of a studio audience outside of Nashville, the special episode pairs the Christian pop duo with Allen as they swap stories and collaborate on each other’s most-loved songs, including Allen’s “Best Shot,” “Down Home” and “Freedom Was A Highway,” and For King + Country’s “God Only Knows,” “Joy” and “Relate,” as well as a special debut performance of a brand-new song. Audiences who missed the original segment can catch it on air again this week. This CMT Crossroads episode will be on CMT on March 5 and on CMT Music on March 10 and March 11.
