The Zac Brown Band embraced the CMA Music Festival’s fan-fair spirit, hosting an “eat-and-greet” fan-club mixer June 12 at Limelight in Nashville. BMI joined the festivities, toasting the band and songwriters behind the hits with a handful of trophies. First, BMI celebrated chart-toppers “Whatever It Is” and “Highway 20 Ride,” both written by Zac Brown and frequent collaborator Wyatt Durrette, along with #1 single “Toes,” written by Brown, Durrette and band bassist John Hopkins. Next up, BMI saluted the band’s breakout hit “Chicken Fried,” also written by Brown and Durrette, and “Whatever It Is,” which have generated more than one million performances each.
