Additional "Hitmakers and Harleys" events are slated for Wednesday, June 16, Tuesday, June 22 and Tuesday, June 29.
Featured songwriters who will join Darryl include Jim "Moose" Brown, best known for his Grammy Award-winning song "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere" recorded by Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffet, along with Walt Aldridge, who has written several Top 10 hits including Heartland's "I Loved Her First and Ronnie Milsap's "No Getting Over Me." Brown also served as co-producer on Worley's current album, Sounds Like Life, which includes "Sounds Like Life to Me," and Worley's latest single, "Best of Both Worlds."
"I always look forward to getting together with these great writers. We always have such a good time," says Worley. "Not only are you getting a chance to connect with the music you love and hear the stories behind your favorite songs, it's also a great opportunity to raise money and help a lot of people who need it."
