We’re less than a month away from HARDY coming to the Bell Auditorium.  HARDY’s “the mocking bird & THE CROW” tour happens on Saturday, March 4th.  Hopefully, you already have tickets. Because unfortunately, they are sold out!  He is definitely making his mark in country music.  His latest album, the mockingbird & THE CROW is a great album if you haven’t heard it yet! But you may not know that HARDY wrote these hit songs listed below!

It’s really cool when you learn that not only are they talented singers, but also so creative when it comes to writing songs.  Sometimes I’m a little jealous of their skills!  HARDY is not just a great singer… he’s also a songwriter in high demand.  Last year, he won the 2022 ACM Songwriter of the Year award. And after that, he also won the 2022 AIMP Songwriter of the Year Award. Then he wrapped up the year with the BMI Songwriter of the Year Award.

There are a few of his hits that he recorded himself, including his debut single, “Rednecker,” and his latest hit with Lainey Wilson, “Wait In The Truck.” But his list of hits extends past his own recordings.  Did you know HARDY wrote these hit songs?
