A Nashville favorite, Phil Vassar
has released six western albums
and written many songs that
other artists have taken to the
top of the charts. Including “Little
Red Rodeo,” (Collin Raye) “My
Next Thirty Years,” “For A Little
While,”(both by Tim McGraw)
“She’s Right On The Money,”
(Alan Jackson) and “I‘m Alright”
(Jo Dee Messina). Known for uptempo piano numbers that instantly get your foot tapping like “Carlene,” and “SixPack Summer,” and heartstring-tugging devotionals
like “That’s When I Love You,” and “Just Another Day
In Paradise,” Phil can also dig deep into heartbreak
territory, as evidenced by the wrenchingly honest
ballad, “April Fools.” His latest hit single is “Don’t Miss
Your Life.” Learn more at www.philvassar.com.
