Artists from Etta James, Martina McBride, and Jessica Simpson to Chicago, Tim McGraw, Lee Ann Womack, Leona Lewis and many in between have embraced his songs. “Walkaway Joe,” recorded by Trisha Yearwood and Don Henley, was a significant milestone to his career. The song went on to earn him a Grammy nomination as well as the respect of his peers that follows him today.  Barnhill also had a crossover smash with “House of Love” for Amy Grant and Vince Gill.  Other hit songs include “Same Ol Love”, “99.9% Sure I’ve Never Been Here Before”, “She’s Taken’ A Shine” and  “Never Been Kissed”.

The Crew have dynamic conversation with Stephen and Greg in this one about music, composing, sonic branding, and oh yes – some of those guitars from the book. Maybe the guests even learn a (stuff n’) thing or two from the Crew too.

Stephen plays one of his most treasured guitars in the podcast and Greg gives us an outstanding performance of one of those songs he is well known for.

So what more can we say but sit back, put on those headphones and…
