BMI honored country music singer-songwriter Ronnie Dunn, a former Tulsan, with multiple MillionAir awards at a reception Thursday in Nashville, Tenn.
Since arriving in Nashville back in 1988, Dunn has amassed a songwriting repertoire that has altogether garnered an astounding 60 million performances. These songs include standards he wrote exclusively like “Boot Scootin’ Boogie,” “Neon Moon,” and “She’s Not the Cheatin’ Kind,” as well as hits with big name co-writers such as “Red Dirt Road” (with his former Brooks & Dunn partner Kix Brooks), “That Ain’t No Way to Go” (Kix Brooks and Don Cook), “Believe” (Craig Wiseman), and many more.
Dunn’s friends, colleagues, and associates were all on hand to celebrate this career milestone as Dunn now rises to the top-tier of BMI troubadours with Merle Haggard, the Bee Gees, and Gamble & Huff.
MillionAirs are songs that have accumulated at least a million performances, according to RonnieDunn.com.
