Bryan, Reba McEntire, Lady
Antebellum, Keith Urban and
Kenny Chesney. He has written
and/or produced more than 36 No.1 songs including the 4x platinum
hit "Body Like a Back Road," which broke the record for the longest
reigning No.1 on Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart.

who are collaborators and friends, and break open the songwriting
process inspires me and makes me even more proud to be a part of
the songwriting community," said Shane
McAnally. "With SiriusXM's Songville, we hope to
share some of this love and pride with our fans."
