THE COUNTRY MUSIC ASSOCIATION HOSTS JAKE WORTHINGTON FOR A PERFORMANCE AT ITS NASHVILLE HQ
NASHVILLE, TENN. – The Country Music Association welcomed Jake Worthington to its Nashville HQ on Wednesday, October 15 for a Q&A and acoustic performance. The Q&A recapped Worthington’s early connection to Country Music, the advice he’s learned from working with other artists and musicians, what it’s been like on the road with Jon Pardi and Zach Top, and the stories behind some of the songs off his sophomore album When I Write The Song. He then performed an acoustic set of his songs “It Ain’t The Whiskey,” “Two First Names,” “When I Write The Song,” “I Only Drink When It Rains” and “Not Like I Used To,” with an encore of “State You Left Me In.”
ABOUT JAKE WORTHINGTON
For Big Loud Texas traditionalist Jake Worthington, country music is in his DNA. The La Porte, Texas native was raised on his grandfather’s porch performances of Ray Price, Merle Haggard and George Jones, and soon picked up his own Gibson acoustic to realize the breadth of his soon-to-be-classic, wide, and wild voice. Now, Worthington breathes fresh life into dance halls, beer joints, and ballrooms from Texas to Tennessee with his growing catalog – his sophomore album When I Write The Song is out now with Miranda Lambert collaboration “Hello Shitty Day,” “I’m The One (feat. Marty Stuart),” viral “It Ain’t The Whiskey” and more. Captivating the masses with his honky-tonk stylings, the singer-songwriter hits the road this fall joining Zach Top as direct support on all dates of the Cold Beer & Country Music Tour followed by supporting slots on Jon Pardi’s Honkytonk Hollywood Tour. “I believe in country music as much as I believe in my next breath,” Worthington declares, and “blame it on my raising, but I think there ought to be room for country in country music.”
