\n\tThe Nashville SHOF also announced eight nominees in the contemporary songwriters category. Two inductees will be chosen in that category. The honorees will be elected by Hall of Fame members and other professional songwriters and artists.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe entire slate of inductees elected in these and three other categories will be announced in the coming weeks and officially inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame later this year.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWell-deserved congratulations to all the nominees in our contemporary categories,\u201d NaSHOF executive director Mark Ford said in a statement. \u201cWe look forward to announcing those who will be inducted this fall as members of our Class of 2026.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tSince 1970, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame has enshrined 254 \u201cof the greatest writers from all genres of music ever to put words to music in Music City,\u201d as the organization puts it. Operated by the non-profit Nashville Songwriters Foundation, the Hall of Fame is dedicated to honoring Nashville\u2019s rich legacy of songwriting excellence.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tAs with the Songwriters Hall of Fame, all nominees experienced their first significant songs at least 20 years ago.<\/p>\n

\n\tHere\u2019s a capsule description for each of the nominees in the two contemporary categories. The information is supplied by Nashville SHOF, supplemented by research into their Grammy histories, if any.<\/p>\n

Nominees: Contemporary songwriter\/artists category<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Miranda Lambert: <\/strong>The Texas native is a three-time Grammy winner, though she has yet to win in a songwriting category.

Taylor Swift:<\/strong> The Pennsylvania-born, Nashville-raised songwriter is a 14-time Grammy winner, including three wins in songwriting categories: best country song for \u201cWhite Horse\u201d and \u201cMean,\u201d and best song written for visual media for \u201cSafe & Sound\u201d from The Hunger Games<\/em>. Swift\u2019s other credits include her own \u201cI Knew It, I Knew You\u201d and \u201cLove Story,\u201d as well as \u201cBetter Man\u201d by Little Big Town. Swift made history at the SHOF ceremony, becoming the youngest woman ever to be inducted and the first past recipient of the Hal David Starlight Award to be inducted.<\/p>\n

Phil Vassar: <\/strong>The Virginia native\u2019s songwriting credits include his own \u201cIn a Real Love\u201d and \u201cJust Another Day in Paradise,\u201d as well as \u201cBye, Bye\u201d by Jo Dee Messina.<\/p>\n
