Hit Show Spotlights Songwriters Behind Iconic Songs
NEW YORK, NY – Victoria Shaw has another hit on her hands - and this time, it's not a song, it's a TV show! Under The Covers with Victoria Shaw, which premiered in 2019 on the All ARTS platform, ALL ARTS app, broadcast channel (check local listings) and allarts.org, has been renewed for a second season.
ALL ARTS the multimedia arts platform launched in 2019 by WNET (parent company of New York’s PBS stations THIRTEEN and WLIW21 and operator of NJTV), is pleased to renew the hit show, Songwriters Under the Covers with Victoria Shaw, an intimate, music performance and storytelling series created in collaboration with award-winning songwriter Victoria Shaw and Brighton Entertainment. Notes Diane Masciale, Co-Executive in Charge of ALL ARTS: "We’re excited for the second season of Songwriters Under the Covers with Victoria Shaw. It’s been a unique addition to our growing list of amazing original programing. Victoria is a great talent who is fun to watch as she performs with her talented guests who share rare, personal stories."
In each episode, top-selling songwriters share the little-known stories behind their hit songs along with an intimate live acoustic performance on stage. “Every song has a story, and Songwriters Under the Covers with Victoria Shaw is the ideal vehicle to tell those stories. It’s the perfect balance between great performances and compelling storytelling,” comments Brad J. Fuss, President of Brighton Entertainment and Executive Producer & Director of the show. “We are thrilled to be invited back for a second season. There will be 7 episodes including 3 episodes that will be captured in Nashville!"
Shaw says: “I have been doing these live shows for the past 20 years. I’m blessed to know a lot of talented, funny, wonderful musicians who are dear friends. I invite those friends who just so happen to be top-selling songwriters from across the pop, rock and country worlds to join me on stage to play their huge hits and reveal what went into creating those iconic songs. It’s very organic, and my shows feel like you’re hanging out in my living room listening in on a bunch of songwriters singing songs, swapping stories and cracking jokes. That’s my goal every night, for my shows to feel like a party at my house.”
Victoria Shaw will return to host the show. Shaw is the songwriter behind iconic hits like Garth Brooks’ “The River,” Ricky Martin and Christina Aguilera’s “Nobody Wants to be Lonely,” along with recorded songs for artists such as Faith Hill, Billy Ray Cyrus, Reba McEntire, LeAnn Rimes, Tricia Yearwood, Olivia Newton-John, and many more artists.
