Music Row gathered at BMI’s Nashville office on Tuesday, February 28 to celebrate Eric Church’s first No. 1 song, “Drink in My Hand.” The rowdy anthem, the second single off of Church’s No.1 album, Chief, was co-written by Luke Laird, who is on a hot streak with nine No. 1 hits, and Church’s long-time collaborator, Michael Heeney, who celebrated his third No. 1. Pictured are (back row) Universal Music Publishing Group’s Kent Earls, Capitol Records’ Mike Dungan, BMI’s Jody Williams, and Sony/ATV Music Publishing’s Troy Tomlinson; (front row) co-writer Luke Laird, Eric Church, and co-writer Michael Heeney.
