Hall, Tom T.

Thomas "Tom T." Hall, music songwriter, singer, novelist, and short-story writer, is considered a Country Music icon. Elected to the Country Hall of Fame, the Nashville Songwriter's Hall of Fame, and the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame in 2011, he has written 11 No. 1 hit songs and 26 more that reached the Top 10, including the No. 1 international smash "Harper Valley PTA" and the hit "I Love." Hall's storytelling skills and his detail-rich songs sharpened and elevated the language of country music and earned him the nickname "The Storyteller." An integral part of the Nashville music scene for fifty-years and an inspiration to generations of artists ranging from Johnny Cash to Patty Griffin, Tom T. Hall was called by George Jones, "By far the all-time greatest songwriter/storyteller that country music has ever had."
