DiPiero is the writer behind fifteen US #1 hits and several top 20 singles for artists like George Strait, Tim McGraw, Reba McEntire, Faith Hill, Brooks & Dunn and more.The songwriters will be performing their own hits and the stories behind them that evening, along with the songs that they will be writing earlier in the day with the local veterans at a private writing retreat. The writing process that the veterans undergo with the songwriters gives them an opportunity to unlock and express their deeply personal experiences and feelings. A live auction will be held that evening as well, with all proceeds going directly to Operation Song programming for veterans and their families.
