Our second concert series will feature singer songwriter Wynn Varble, who will travel to Columbus to tell his stories and share his music including three #1 country hits: “Waitin’ On A Woman,” “I’m a Little More Country than That,” and “Have You Forgotten?”
Wynn was 2009 Nashville Songwriters Association International “Songwriter of the Year” due in part to his #1 hit for Brad Paisley “Waitin’ On A Woman.” This same song also garnered Varble with the honor of “Song of the Year”. Wynn had his first #1 song "Have You Forgotten" with Darryl Worley in 2003. This song was nominated for “Song of the Year” by the CMA Awards.
Wynn’s songs have been cut by a range of great artists, including Garth Brooks, Lee Ann Womack, Brad Paisley, Darryl Worley, Kellie Pickler, Easton Corbin, Montgomery Gentry, Jason Sellers, Gary Allan, Trace Adkins, Clint Daniels, Kevin Denney, Tracy Byrd, The Kinleys, Chris LeDoux, Danni Leigh, Mark Chesnutt and Sammy Kershaw. |
