Songwriter follows John Prine and Robert Earl Keen as recipients of the performing-rights organization’s highest honor
John Hiatt was honored as the third recipient of the BMI Troubadour Award during a dinner Monday night in Nashville. The songwriting mainstay, who moved to Nashville when he was just 18, follows John Prine and inaugural Troubadour recipient Robert Earl Keen in the honor.
An intimate affair at the performing rights organization’s Music Row headquarters, the evening featured an eclectic lineup of artists playing Hiatt’s songs. Elvis Costello sang “Take Off Your Uniform,” off 1979’s Slug Line; Lyle Lovett offered 2011’s “Train to Birmingham”; and Delbert McClinton delivered a yearning rendition of the Hiatt signature “Have a Little Faith in Me,” providing his own harmonica accompaniment.
