Kresge Acoustic Series: “Shotgun Rider”

Michael Christopher has released a video for his acoustic video of “Shotgun Rider”. The song was written by Marv Green, Hillary Lindsey, and Troy Verges, and was recorded by Tim McGraw.  Released in September 2014, it was the third single from McGraw’s album, ‘Sundown Heaven Town’.

“I loved this song from the first time I heard it,” Michael said. “There are songs you like, and then there are songs you’d like to play.  This is one of those that I knew I wanted to play.”

Michael and his band play the song regularly at their live shows, but have always wanted to perform an unplugged version:

This video for “Shotgun Rider” is part of an acoustic series filmed at the Kresge Theatre on Carnegie Mellon’s campus in Pittsburgh, PA. It features performances of some of Michael’s favorite songs, past and present, across the country music genre and beyond.
