Galyon’s “Tequila,” co-written with ASCAP’s Dan Smyers and Jordan Reynolds for Dan + Shay, claimed country song of the year, one of four Galyon-penned titles honored among the 50 most-performed country songs during a chilly Nov. 12 event at BMI’s Nashville facilities. Galyon also co-wrote Lee Brice’s “Boy,” Keith Urban’s “Coming Home” and Lady Antebellum’s “Heartbreak” to nail down her first songwriter of the year honor.
The most commercial songs often have such a ring of inevitability about them that they become as endemic to pop culture as the Super Bowl, though they would not exist unless a songwriter took the time to create them. The three PRO events lead into the Country Music Association Awards, aired by ABC on Nov. 13. A number of the CMA nominees were present to collect BMI medallions, including Luke Combs, Maren Morris, Morgan Wallen and Carrie Underwood.
No faking was apparent during Ricky Skaggs & Kentucky Thunder’s rippling cover of “Rocky Top” at BMI. The Yoakam tributes were also convincing.
