The Stories Behind the Songs featuring Tim McGraw, Tom Douglas and The Warren Brothers
2023-04-10 19:00 | The Franklin Theatre, 419 Main Street, Franklin, 37064, United States
The Stories Behind the Songs featuring Tim McGraw, Tom Douglas and The Warren Brothers – The Franklin Theatre
The 21st District Recovery Court (Recovery Court) is hosting their first ever singer-songwriter night on April 10 at The Franklin Theatre. The intimate musical experience showcases the talents of Williamson County’s very own Tim McGraw. The superstar entertainer, author and actor will perform some of his greatest hits in a songwriter in the round style event alongside Tom Douglas and The Warren Brothers.
All proceeds from the event will go directly to Recovery Court to support its 20-year mission to end the cycle of addiction and crime in our community by providing accountability and compassion to non-violent offenders in the criminal justice system. “Both Brad and I have a passion to help those who are suffering from alcohol and substance abuse,” said Brett Warren, who also serves on Recovery Court’s board of directors. “This event is one of the ways we are supporting the addiction and recovery community and we look forward to joining Tim and Tom as we share the inspiration behind some of our songs.”
Douglas is an Academy Award, Golden Globe and GRAMMY®-nominated songwriter and Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame member who has written several McGraw hits, including “Southern Voice”, “Grown Men Don’t Cry”, “Let It Go”, “Meanwhile Back at Mama’s”, and “My Little Girl.” McGraw has recorded more than 30 of The Warren Brothers songs including “If You’re Reading This”, “Felt Good on My Lips”, “Highway Don’t Care”, and “Thought About You”.
Presenting sponsors are H.G. Hill Realty Company and Let it Shine Gymnastics. Additional sponsors include: Buerger, Moseley and Carson, Gray Public Relations, Lacie and Kyle Simonton, Judge Deanna Johnson, Brett Warren and David Dingler. The event is in collaboration with Songwriters City.
The inaugural singer-songwriter event adds to Recovery Court’s 2023 fundraisers. The annual Eat the Street Food Truck Festival will be held on Friday, June 2, and the annual Community Luncheon, which is rebranding from its breakfast format to accommodate growth, will be held on Monday, Oct. 30.
Recovery Court is funded primarily through grants and private donations, and receives no taxpayer funding. “Our program is not an easy way out,” said Program Director Connie Martin. “The court only considers applicants demonstrating a genuine desire to confront their addictions. Those that are accepted undergo rigorous treatment and intensive monitoring as they learn life skills and new habits for successful living. Our model is unique in that it uses a non-adversarial, therapeutic approach to crimes rooted in addiction.”
According to local law enforcement professionals, most crimes committed in our community are drug or alcohol related. Recovery Court has proven effective in reducing the revolving door of drug and alcohol related crime as well as reducing the cost to taxpayers. The program spends approximately $14,500 per participant annually compared to an estimated $35,000 to incarcerate each offender for a year.
Those who would like to support Recovery Court but cannot attend the event may make an online donation at 21stdc.org.

About 21st District Recovery Court
The 21st Recovery Court serves the 21st Judicial District. Program participants are non-violent offenders with a history of chemical dependency, which has shown to be one of the primary reasons for repeated criminal activity. The program works with law enforcement and the courts as participants engage in a highly supervised, two-year program, providing treatment, supervision and support. Graduates of recovery court programs have a low rate of reoffending, especially compared to those offenders supervised in traditional court probation and parole programs. Participants’ recovery allows them to have a productive life while the community is served by a reduction in criminal activity and cost-effective treatment for offenders. Most importantly, the families and lives of the participants are restored to a safe and positive environment. Recovery courts in Tennessee are not supported by state judicial budgets, rather they are partially funded by a portion of statutory court costs paid by criminal offenders.

About Leanna Crawford (https://www.leannacrawford.com):
For the past two and half years, singer-songwriter Leanna Crawford has been writing, touring, and performing with some of the biggest names in the Christian music industry. She’s gained more experience than many artists do in a decade, and while her latest EP certainly displays the vocal and songwriting talent of a rising star in CCM, her grounded and honest lyrics make her feel more friend and confidante than star, more approachable than untouchable.
Her sophomore self-titled EP set to release spring 2020 certainly accomplishes this. With songs that speak honestly about doubt and insecurity as well as the hope Christ offers in our darkest moments, Crawford’s listeners will find solace in her kind and wise words, while tapping their feet along to contagious, pop-inspired beats.
Leanna was nominated as Female Artist of the Year for the 2021 K-LOVE Fan Awards. Her single “Truth I’m Standing On” was a Top 30 song on the Billboard Christian Airplay chart. The latest single “Mean Girls” reached Top 20 on the Billboard Christian Airplay chart.
Crawford’s career began to take off when she met GRAMMY®-nominated and Dove-award winning recording artist Matthew West at a songwriting conference before her junior year of college. West saw Crawford perform at an open mic and asked for her demo. Soon after, the Washington-state native flew to Nashville to co-write with West, which led to a publishing deal and her first EP, 2018’s Crazy Beautiful You. Crawford is also the first artist to sign with West’s new record label Story House Music, a joint venture with Provident Label Group.
While Crawford graduated with a degree in music business, she touts the past couple of years with tremendous growth, both personally and professionally. “I feel like I’ve been in school for the last couple of years without even realizing it,” says Crawford. Her “education” has included songwriting sessions with Matthew West and his longtime collaborator A.J. Pruis, who produced the self-titled collection, relocating permanently to Nashville, and touring with well-known Christian artists such as West, Michael W. Smith, Tenth Avenue North, and others. She credits the depth and honesty of this new EP to the ways she has grown and changed in these years.
“I know more of who I am in Christ, and I know more of what I want to say, and I’m definitely more confident about those things,” she explains.
The EP’s first single, which drops February 7, touches on this idea of identity and knowing who we are in Christ. Although the track is titled “Funeral,” its beat and lyrics are anything but somber—an intentional musical decision, considering what the “funeral” is for. As the chorus goes, So, I’m throwing a funeral, funeral for the old me / I’m throwing a funeral, funeral for who I used to be / The new has come, the old has gone / Praise the Lord I’m moving on.
Tracks like the grippingly honest “Mean Girls” that, along with most songs on the album, she co-wrote with West and Pruis will resonate with any girl, or woman, who has ever been called a name or made fun of, especially for her appearance. The first verse opens with, Mean girls don’t remember what they said / Well it’s funny because I can’t seem to forget.
Crawford’s voice throughout the EP is empathetic with listeners and unafraid to broach difficult topics, proving her maturity as an artist. The powerful ballad “Truth I’m Standing On” speaks directly to the intersection of doubt and faith, despair and hope: I’ve had my share of doubt / But never more than right now / I’m wondering, ‘Where are you?’ / Here on the edge of fall-apart / Somehow your promises find my troubled heart.
Perhaps her growth over the last few years, her solidified identity in Christ, and her confidence in her message can be summed up by a lyric in the track “Uncool,” which she says captures a lot of the heart of this EP: If it’s uncool to say that I love Jesus / If it’s uncool to sing about my freedom / Then I’m cool / Being uncool.
Although Crawford’s popularity would prove she is anything but uncool, she is a refreshingly honest voice in a culture and generation that often prizes the social-media perfect image over authenticity—something she hopes to be known for not only as her career begins, but as it continues.

Funny Money – Pull-Tight Players Theatre
A farce from one of the masters of stage comedy, Funny Money will have you laughing all the way to the bank—or Barcelona. Accountant Henry Perkins is down the middle in every way, middle-class and middle-aged, and headed home for another middling birthday dinner with his wife and friends … until he picks up the wrong briefcase on the tube, one filled with a LOT of money. For once throwing caution to the wind, he decides to run away with his wife and the money. But a night of mix-ups, mistaken identities, and a miscreant named Mr. Big have other plans for Henry. Funny Money is a night of hilarious twists and turns that are anything but middle of the road.

“Anything is Paw-sible”
Wesley Williams has loved animals from a very young age! His mom even says he wanted to purchase a full-on petting zoo at just five years old. It was always something new she proclaimed. One month all he wanted was a potbelly pig, the next month a miniature pony, the next month a flock of chickens, you name the animal, and Wesley wanted it. Although he has always had a passion for working with animals, Wesley pursued his unique unicycle skills at an early age, but always kept that dream of working with furry friends in the back of his mind. Just two years into forming his livelong goal of an animal act Wesley has burst onto the scene with his “Puppy Pals,” an all-new comedic stunt dog show!
