A group of regional songwriters are having a workshop in Fort Atkinson during the day, and will showcase their songs here of the evening. Leading the workshop will be DON HENRY, who will also perform a few songs.

Grammy Award winner Don Henry’s songs have been recorded by legends like:  Ray Charles, Patti Page and Conway Twitty
By country crooners like: Gene Watson, John Conlee and B.J. Thomas
By young hit makers of today like:  Blake Shelton, Lonestar and Miranda Lambert ….
…..and the list goes on.

And he’s shared the stage with performers as diverse as Joey Ramone to Keith Urban.
The wit and wisdom of Don’s songs are widely renowned whether it’s campfire favorites, the hilarious “B.F.D.” and biker lullaby “Harley”, to the wonderfully poignant tribute to Martin Luther King “Beautiful Fool”, and of course his Grammy Award winning country classic “Where’ve You Been”.

In addition to a Grammy, Kathy Mattea’s version of “Where’ve You Been” won Don (and co-writer Jon Vezner) song of the year honors from ACM (Academy of Country Music), CMA (Country Music Association) and NSAI (Nashville Songwriters Association International).
“Where’ve You Been” was the first song in country music history to be awarded all four honors in the same year!

People are encouraged to come be part of the audience. (Note that this is not an open mike.)
