TheDavidBowersAwards with Rick Ferrell and Loretta Hagen

This week, the DavidBowersAwards presents two Americana artists, Country/Americana singer-songwriter Rick Ferrell and Folk/Americana singer-songwriter Loretta Hagen.

Rick Ferrell moved to Nashville to pursue his dream of a music career and soon his talents as a writer were drawing attention.  It wasn't long until he had recording AND writing careers, most notably for Tim McGraw's "Something Like That' (the BBQ song)!  He has since written for a host of famous artists as well as recording his own music.

Loretta Hagen is a multi-talented artist whose voice and songwriting have won her a growing list of awards and attention.  Winner of the New Jersey Folk Festival Songwriter competition, she fought through personal challenges with her music to emerge stronger than ever, culminating with her new album, "Lucky Stars."  She has shared stages with the likes of Pete Seeger, Roger McGuinn, Richie Havens and Marshall Crenshaw.
