Musical artist
Brett Beavers (born in Waco, Texas ) is an American country music songwriter and producer and the co-author of the book Something Worth Leaving Behind .
Education and early career
[ edit ]
Beavers attended Baylor University , where he earned a bachelor of science degree in secondary education[1] in 1985.[2] He spent the next four years playing bass guitar with Mack Abernathy throughout the United States, honing his skill as a songwriter.[2] After a year away from the music business, when he married and taught high school science in Tyler, Texas ,[2] he moved to Nashville, Tennessee , to join a band with Deryl Dodd .[3] Shortly after arriving in Nashville, Beavers began touring with Martina McBride as bass player and bandleader, from 1992–1996, and then with Lee Ann Womack from 1997–2005 in the same capacity.[2] During this time, he started a publishing company and began getting his songs recorded by such artists as Tim McGraw and Billy Ray Cyrus .[3] In 2005, he stopped performing and touring to pursue songwriting and producing on a full-time basis.[2] His brother, Jim , is also a Nashville songwriter.[4]
With Dierks Bentley
[ edit ]
Much of Beavers' success has been with Dierks Bentley , for whom he produces and co-writes several of his songs, a collaboration that began in 2001.[5] The partnership has produced several number-one Hot Country Songs , including "Sideways ",[6] "Come a Little Closer ",[7] "Feel That Fire ",[8] and "Every Mile a Memory ".[9] In addition to chart-topping success, the pairing has led to a SOCAN [10] and NSAI Achievement Award for "What Was I Thinkin' ",[11] a BMI Award Most Performed Song for "Trying to Stop Your Leaving ",[12] and Grammy Award nominations for Best Country Song, "Long Trip Alone "[13] and Country Song of the Year, "Every Mile a Memory ".[14] The songs that he has written and produced for Bentley have also led to Beavers being honored at the BMI Country Awards every year from 2006–2009.[15] [16] [17] [18]
