The Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI) has revealed its 2026-2027 Board. The organization recently held its first meeting with the new board, where they welcomed new members Victoria Banks and Josh Jenkins to The Music Mill. Banks and Jenkins joined 25 other leaders of the organization.

During the general election held earlier this year, nine existing board members were re-elected to begin an additional two year term, including Trannie Anderson, Steve Bogard, Chris DeStefano, J.T. Harding, Byron Hill, Jamie Moore, Liz Rose, Jenn Schott and Emily Shackelton. Additionally, Roger Brown will serve as Legislative Chair, Parker Welling as Industry Liaison, and Rhett Akins and Drew Baldridge as Artist-Writers, all for one year terms.

Kelly Archer, Jessie Jo Dillon, David Hodges, Lee Thomas Miller, Tim Nichols, Josh Osborne, Deric Ruttan, Lydia Vaughn, Troy Verges, Ben Williams, Dan Wilson and Jimmy Yeary are current board members whose terms expire in 2027.

The official officer board for the year includes Miller (President), Schott (Vice President), Brown (Legislative Chair), Welling (Industry Liaison), Nichols (Sgt.-at-Arms), Hill (Secretary) and Bogard (Treasurer). Osborne, Rose and Verges also serve as At-Large Members of the Executive Committee.

NSAI Board elections are voted on by the NSAI Professional Songwriter Membership and appointments by the NSAI Board of Directors.
