American Songwriter Special: Hall of Famer Jeffrey Steele Explains the Origins of Hit "My Town" 

Shortly after 9/11 Jeffrey Steele and Reed Nelson were hanging out in Durango, Colorado sitting around wondering what they were gonna write that day. Steele began to tune his guitar in a way that he had done a thousand times before. That’s when Nelson perked up and said “What are you playing?” Confused, Steele said “I’m just tuning my guitar.” Nelson said “play that.” That tuning exercise turned into a massive hit for Montgomery Gentry : “My Town.” Check out the crazy story and yet another amazing performance from Steele.
