New Songwriter Show Tells the Story Behind Hits by Garth Brooks, Kelly Clarkson, Aerosmith and More – Called Songwriters Under the Covers, it’s the brainchild of its host, accomplished Nashville songwriter-singer Victoria Shaw, whose hits include the Garth Brooks classic “The River.” Each hour-long episode features Shaw, 57, and two hit songwriters, all of whom take turns singing and telling the stories behind their songs. Shaw has handpicked the songwriters from her long and eclectic list of songwriter friends, and though they may not be household names, their music is instantly recognizable. Songwriters Under the Covers premieres nationally Wednesday, Oct. 16, on streaming platforms and the All Arts website, as well as on Roku, Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV. It also will be broadcast in the New York area on the All Arts channel at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday and in the Nashville area on NPT/PBS at 9 p.m. Thursday. – Read more at People
