From WWR

Talent, passion, and persistence are woven through the fabric of Jerry Vandiver’s 19-year songwriting career. Originally from Kansas City, Missouri, Jerry began his professional pursuits when he moved to Nashville in the fall of 1984. Since then, he has been an exclusive staff writer on Music Row for Dick James Music, Little Big Town Music, Malaco Music, and Talbot Music.

Jerry’s first major label cut, “Don’t Waste It On The Blues”, recorded by Gene Watson, reached #5 on the country charts in 1989, winning him an esteemed ASCAP Award. In 1991, Wild Rose climbed the charts to #20 with Vandiver’s penned hit, “Go Down Swingin.”

Since then, he has had two songs recorded by Tim McGraw; “It Doesn’t Get Any Countrier Than This!”, featured on McGraw’s platinum 5 CD (“Not A Moment Too Soon”), and “For a Little While”, (reaching #2 on the country charts) on the quadruple platinum 1998 CMA Album of the Year “Everywhere”, winning Jerry a BMI Award. “For A Little While” was also included on McGraw’s triple platinum “Greatest Hits” CD. Thanks to Tim, Jerry has songs on over 13 million records and two of his song titles are hanging on the wall in the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Jerry collaborated with Arista Recording Artist and 2001 ACM Horizon award winner Phil Vassar on “Athens Grease”, which is also Vassar’s current video release from his CD “American Child”.

Lee Greenwood, Barbara Mandrell, Ronna Reeves, Cleve Francis, David Lee Garza, Woody Lee and others including Warner Bros.’ newcomer Dusty Drake have recorded songs written by Jerry. read more.
