NASHVILLE, TN — Indie singer/songwriter Scott Southworth continues to become a household name in 2018. Friday, Southworth’s singing and songwriting will hit the big screen with the release of the feature film, Summer of ’67. The Mid-Tenn Film Fest has already awarded Summer of ’67 Best Soundtrack honors for a feature film. And Saturday, Southworth fulfills a lifelong dream with what he calls a “true honor” to perform on country music’s second-longest running radio show, The Ernest Tubb Midnite Jamboree.

The feature film Summer of ’67 makes it’s theatrical debut at Nashville’s Regal Hollywood Stadium 27 on Friday, June 29th, in time for the Fourth of July. The seven-day run precedes a nationwide release on Veteran’s Day. Scott Southworth is the singing voice on most of the original songs in the production, as well as the singing voice for one of the main characters in the movie.

Filmed in Nashville and surrounding areas, the feature is based on real life events, Summer of ’67 brings to life the turbulent times of the sixties and the struggles faced by the men and women impacted by the Vietnam War. The film revolves around the lives of three women and the effects of war and love. Young wife and mother Milly (Rachel Schrey) is forced to live with her mother-in-law while her husband Gerald (Cameron Gilliam) is away on the USS Forrestal. Kate (Bethany Davenport) must choose between Peter (Christopher Dalton) her high school sweetheart and Van (Sam Brooks) her new hippie boyfriend. Ruby Mae (Sharonne Lanier) finally finds true love with Reggie (Jerrold Edwards) only to have him whisked away by the draft.

Southworth’s weekend is topped with an appearance on the world famous Ernest Tubb Midnite Jamboree at The Texas Troubadour Theatre on Saturday, June 30th. This will be the awarded singer/songwriter’s debut performance on the show which will be streamed live at 10pm central time at www.musiccitytelevision.com. The 71-year tradition will then be broadcast over 650am WSM and worldwide on www.wsmonline.com at 12 midnight central time.

Scott Southworth will be singing some of his songs from his newly-released CD, Hey Hillbilly Singer!, which has sparked a busy 2018 tour, including an extended tour overseas that will take Southworth to Norway in August.
