Songwriters Hall of Fame
Garth Brooks to be Inducted Into 2011 Songwriters Hall Of Fame
The 2011 Songwriters Hall of Fame Inductees have been announced and Garth Brooks is among the honorees.
Garth released the following statement with his thoughts on the honor:
I want to thank the Songwriters Hall of Fame for this distinguished honor. To consider myself a "songwriter" is something I find hard to agree with, for it is the songwriter that is the most gifted and most important ingredient in the music formula. I am humbled and flattered by this award and want to thank the songwriters I have written with in the past. I feel it is because of them I am receiving this award.
Garth joins fellow inductees including John Bettis, Leon Russell, Allen Toussaint, Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly.
