Long.”<br />

songs, including “Faithless Love,” “Simple<br />

Man, Simple Dream” and “Prisoner in<br />

Disguise.”<br />

Souther also has found success as a solo<br />

artist. His single “You’re Only Lonely”<br />

reached the Top 10 and was quickly followed<br />

by “Her Town, Too,” which Souther<br />

co-wrote with James Taylor. The Dixie<br />

Chicks 1998 hit “I’ll Take Care of You,”<br />

also was written by Souther and featured<br />

on their album “Wide Open Spaces,”<br />

which sold more than 11 million records.<br />

Souther has recorded with jazz luminaries<br />

Stanley Clarke, Donald Byrd,<br />

Chuck Domanico, Johnny Guerin, Chris<br />

Souther was inducted into the Songwriter’s<br />

Hall of Fame in 2013.<br />

On his latest studio album, “Tenderness”<br />

(Sony Music Masterworks), Souther<br />

creates a perfect balance of understated<br />

jazz with the ineffable pop narratives that<br />

have been the backbone of much of his<br />

greatest work. His classic albums “John<br />

David Souther,” “Black Rose” and “Home<br />

by Dawn” have been released as expanded<br />

reissues by Omnivore Recordings.<br />
