George Birge

George Birge at Eight Seconds Saloon

A joke about country clichés helped launch one of George Birge’s most recognizable songs. On November 20 at Eight Seconds Saloon in Indianapolis, you can see the songwriter behind that story in person.

Birge's path makes him worth seeing live. He was born in Texas, grew up in Austin and is based in Nashville today. He started out playing his own songs in the bars of Austin's Sixth Street, and that's a long way from a night out in Indianapolis. A performer who learned his craft one bar room at a time tends to bring that background with him. You get to see where a songwriter's story has led.

There's more to him than his own recordings. Clay Walker and Colt Ford have recorded Birge's songs, and he co-wrote Mind on You with Colt Ford, Jaron Boyer and Michael Tyler. That's a songwriter whose work reaches beyond his own shows. For country fans who care about who writes the songs as much as who sings them, that's a real draw.
