For me, John Prine was the heart of Nashville, the reason I came to this city, my teacher, my songwriting hero, my friend. A brave truth-teller, who, with a wink and a grin, showed us who we are.
We songwriters have lost our reluctant leader.
John was the kindest man I knew, with the most childlike, beautiful heart.
God bless John Prine forever, amen.
Sending my love to Fiona and everyone in the Oh Boy family tonight.
