Songwriter Ester Brohus

Danish Americana artist Ester Brohus, winner of six Danish Grammy Awards, returns with her most ambitious project to date: Songwriter, recorded in Nashville at the legendary Sound Emporium Studios and produced by acclaimed guitarist, composer, and Grand Ole Opry music director Kerry Marx.

Although Ester has visited Nashville many times throughout her career, Songwriter marks her first-ever Nashville-recorded album. The collaboration began after Marx heard Ester’s raw piano-and-vocal demos and immediately responded: “I can produce it.”

Marx brought together an all-star lineup of Nashville musicians whose collective credits include Johnny Cash, Taylor Swift, James Taylor, Dolly Parton, Vince Gill, Reba McEntire, Emmylou Harris, and more:

Kerry Marx – Producer; guitar (Grand Ole Opry, Taylor Swift, James Taylor)

Catherine Marx – Piano (Rodney Crowell, Reba McEntire)

Tommy Harden – Drums (Reba McEntire)

Eamon McLoughlin – Violin/Mandolin (Emmylou Harris; Grand Ole Opry band)

Eddie Dunlap – Steel/Dobro (Vince Gill)

Gary Lynn – Bass (Dolly Parton)
