It’s impossible to imagine living life without what you all do for a living,” said Warren in his acceptance speech. “Songwriters put into words what we can’t. “He is the best interviewer that I’ve ever heard and I’m proud to call him a friend.” “Before anyone else was on board, Storme was on board,” said Ashley McBryde, reigning CMA New Artist of the Year. The evening also included a speech and special performance of Rascal Flatts “Every Day” by former BMI Songwriter of the Year Jeffrey Steele. The event featured comments by BMI’s David Preston, along with BMI Icon Bob DiPiero and BMI songwriters Chris Janson and Ashley McBryde. Warren, who has actively supported BMI since 1993, has played a critical role in the success of various BMI events and initiatives, and has used his platform as a forum for songwriters to publicly highlight their craft while providing an outlet for fans to hear the stories behind their favorite hits. “As Storme’s career evolved from presenting GAC’s Headline Country to becoming the host of the popular The Highway morning show on Sirius XM, one thing has remained constant: his unwavering love of songwriters and the ability to highlight their talent.” “We are excited to celebrate a very special and unique 25 year relationship between BMI and Storme Warren, who has consistently and fiercely spotlighted the magical force that makes this community so special… the songwriter,” said David Preston, Senior Director, Creative, Nashville. Warren received the BMI Ambassador Award in recognition of his continuous support and promotion of Nashville’s vibrant songwriting community. BMI proudly presented a special award last night to veteran broadcaster, Storme Warren, in their Nashville offices.
