Cox Media Group today announced an original podcasting concept, in collaboration with world-renowned BMI songwriters. With sessions originally recorded at the BMI Theatre in Nashville, “Stories Behind The Songs” is hosted by Christi Brooks, midday personality and Assistant Program/Music Director of KKBQ-FM The New 93Q in Houston, TX.
“Stories Behind The Songs” was created for one reason: Every great song starts with a great story. This podcast focuses on the process, the artform, and the stories -- discussing the writer’s journey from concept to hit song.
“Songwriters are tremendously talented individuals. With ‘Stories Behind The Songs,’ we really want to spotlight the incredible music they create, and bring music fans behind the scenes on how some of the most iconic songs have come about,” said CMG VP of Content and Audience Tim Clarke. “'Stories Behind The Songs’ focuses on stories that have never been told publicly until now, straight from the songwriters themselves.”
The podcast is available now at StoriesBehindTheSongsPodcast.com and on iTunes. Six episodes to date feature B-side content and interviews with BMI songwriters: Aaron Barker, Danny Myrick, Bridgette Tatum, and Wynn Varble.
Future episodes will be released weekly.
