Country Music’s top songwriters live from Analog at The Hutton Hotel!
Southern Rounds brings the hits to the stage this month at ANALOG in NASHVILLE on OCTOBER 8th. Joining Host MICHAEL HANEY are BRYAN SIMPSON, GARRETT JACOBS, and BAY SIMPSON starting at 7:30 pm. Hear the stories behind the songs from some of Country Music’s beloved hits from Tim McGraw, George Strait, Old Dominion, Lee Brice, and Kid Rock. Ross Holmes joins the stage to accompany on the fiddle.
BRYAN SIMPSON
Modern American eclectic singer-songwriter Bryan Simpson is an artist whose sound unnervingly explores an evocative amalgamation of southern folk, bluegrass, classic country, and indie eclecticism, with the playful swagger, relatable storytelling, and thoughtful introspection of his heroes, which include John Hartford, Tom T Hall, Jeff Tweedy, and, of course, Bob Dylan.
Bryan’s songs have netted praise from all corners: The Huffington Post wrote, “Bryan’s original undertakings are reminiscent of the whimsical and whip-smart work by David Byrne and Jim James”. While SeattlePi claims Simpson’s music echoes “Bowie, and Beck in the melodies, moods, and arrangements. The quest is entertaining and thought-provoking.” His genre-spanning career has included making records and touring as a singer/songwriter with luminaries as diverse as The Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach, bluegrass giant Ricky Skaggs, and Mumford and Sons. Since leaving his hometown of Ft Worth Texas with only a fiddle, guitar, mandolin and a box fan to his name, Simpson has had many of his original songs recorded by country music stand outs like Blake Shelton, Tim McGraw, Hailey Whitters, Kenny Chesney, George Strait, Brandy Clark, Old Dominion, Stephen Wilson Jr., with several of them ending up with a number 1 beside their name on the Billboard and Music Row charts. He has also been awarded NSAI’s prestigious award of “10 Songs I wish I’d Written”. His songs have easily totaled over 500 million streams at this point.
This year, Simpson released his first record under his own name. “The Oldest”, released in April, is a concise 11 songs in length, produced by Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan/Brandi Carlisle) and takes Simpson’s shade tree kaleidoscopic storytelling center stage.

GARRETT JACOBS
Garrett Jacobs, hailing from Bossier City, Louisiana, has been chasing music his entire life. After moving to Nashville in 2018 with just 4 boxes, a guitar, and a 2014 Camry, he began writing songs and carving his own lane between Blues, Country, and Soul music. Since signing with Sony Music Publishing in 2021, he has landed cuts with artists like Lee Brice, For King and Country, Caleb Lee Hutchinson, and many others.
The rising artist is currently recording and releasing music tailored to those who are craving music that makes them feel something deep in their chest and reminds them of the classics from the ’70s and 80’s.
This sonic trailblazer is a force to be reckoned with and his recent single “This Thing We Call Love” is just the tip of the iceberg. Creativity comes first with Garrett Jacobs, and there is no doubt that he will continue to make waves and push the boundaries of music as time goes on.

BAY SIMPSON
Bay Simpson is a singer/songwriter from Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Raised up around the studio and born a performer, Bay could already be considered a veteran in his mid-20s. His first break as a songwriter came at the ripe age of 20 when Kid Rock recorded and released one of his songs entitled “Never Enough”. After years of fronting his country rock band “Outlaw Apostles” and opening for artists such as Dwight Yoakam and Jamey Johnson, Bay is finally coming into his own as a solo artist. Releasing his debut single, “Too Old For This”, on January 31st, 2025, Bay Simpson is set to begin carving his own legacy one song and one show at a time.

MICHAEL HANEY (HOST)
Michael Haney always felt making a career out of making music was out of reach — until 2015, when he was looking for his next gig after a decade as a sports radio producer and on-air personality in his native South Carolina. He moved to Nashville that September. Now signed to Rock Ridge Music, Haney is honing his warm, comforting Americana sound under the guidance of producer Ben Jackson (Josh Ross, Sister Hazel, Aaron Watson) while working with country-pop-rock band Sister Hazel’s merch company, lending his voice to commercials and audiobooks, and booking Nashville Nights, a weekly summertime songwriter series at Steel Hands Brewing in Cayce, South Carolina.
