Description

Hannah Dasher, Wynn Varble & Kendell Marvel

Effingham County native Hannah Dasher has a way of bringing out the “country music” in everyone. Though a modern stylist, her songwriting and vocal delivery have been steeped in traditional country, soul, rock, and blues. Hannah’s producer Jeff Stevens, who has written numerous #1 country singles and who has enjoyed enormous success as the sole producer for genre superstar Luke Bryan, was instantly knocked out by Hannah's vocal prowess, her personality, and her potential to become a hit songwriter and artist. Other top collaborators of Hannah’s include Wynn Varble, Dean Dillon, James LeBlanc, Chris DuBois, Mark D. Sanders, Terry McBride, and more. She recently received the ASCAP Harold Adamson award and was honored at the Lincoln Center in New York City. Hannah is currently signed to BMG Chrysalis in Nashville and is actively recording material for her debut album. She is already garnering interest from several labels.

Wynn Varble came to love country music at a very young age.  He discovered his father’s collection of classic country albums.  He even traded his big brother’s “Grand Funk Railroad” for a copy of Jimmy Dean’s “Big Bad John”.  He still has a scar to prove it. Wynn decided to make the move to Nashville. His first radio single was “Fit To Be Tied Down” by Sammy Kershaw.  Since then he has had dozens of hits including three number ones…all three were nominated as Song Of The Year by either CMA or ACM and sometimes both.  Those songs are:  “Have You Forgotten” by Darryl Worley, “Waiting On A Woman” by Brad Paisley, and “I’m A Little More Country Than That” recorded by Easton Corbin. Wynn received Nashville Songwriters Association’s Songwriter of the Year Award in 2009 and has three songs on the new Garth Brooks CD “Man Against Machine”, including the current hit single, “Mom”. Wynn made his Grand Ole Opry debut in 2011. 

Kendell Marvel stayed hunkered down in one spot for a long time last year. The award-winning songwriter was focused on writing material for the new Josh Thompson “Turn It Up” album for Show Dog-Universal Music. The Thompsonville native said the commitment resulted in his contribution of five songs to the project. This year, his vast catalog of tunes is catching the ear of other Nashville superstars, giving him a solid shot at being back on the airwaves in the very near future. Marvel penned “Buzzin'” for the new Blake Shelton album, inked “Rum Dumb” on Kenny Chesney's highly anticipated Beaches album and wrote “Good For A Good Time” in July, which was immediately recorded by Darius Rucker for his new album due out later this year.
