Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and musician Lori McKenna has become one of Nashville's most in-demand country songwriters. Her songs have been cut by artists like Alison Krauss, Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Reba, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw and Keith Urban, with chart hits like Hunter Hayes' "I Want Crazy," Little Big Town's "Girl Crush," and Tim McGraw's "Humble and Kind". In 2017, she became the first woman ever to win the Country Music Association's Song of the Year award two years in a row and also won back-to-back Grammys for Best Country Song for "Girl Crush" performed by Little Big Town and "Humble and Kind" performed by Tim McGraw. Moreover, she became the first female to ever win Songwriter of the Year at the Academy of Country Music Awards that same year.

Along with her success as a songwriter, McKenna has released ten critically acclaimed studio albums.
