Camp House hosts three singer-songwriters

"One Tree Hill" fans who followed the music sourced for that teen TV drama will recognize "Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye." It was the background for a scene in which Nathan Scott's father, Dan Scott, finally apologizes to Haley, Nathan's wife, for the way he has treated her and his efforts to break up her marriage, admitting she's the best thing that ever happened to his son.

If you watch "Nashville," you might remember characters Scarlett and Gunnar singing "When You Open Your Eyes" in a Bluebird Cafe scene.

Michael Logen wrote both those singles. Chattanoogans can hear him, along with singer-songwriters Eliot Bronson and Derek Wayne Martin, tonight, July 6, at The Camp House, 149 E. M.L. King Blvd.

Eliot Bronson

Baltimore, Md., native Eliot Bronson began playing at local coffeehouses and was dubbed a "folk-singing wunderkind" by The Baltimore Sun before moving to Atlanta, where he formed the duo The Brilliant Inventions.

The band became a staple of the Atlanta music scene, winning several local and national music awards. In 2010, the band split up, and Bronson continued solo, releasing "Blackbirds" in 2011. In 2012, Bronson released "Milwaukee," with his band Yonder Orphans.

Bronson signed with independent music label Saturn 5 Records in 2014. His self-titled album, "Eliot Bronson," was recorded totally analog in Nashville by producer Dave Cobb (Sturgill Simpson, Jason Isbell). It was recorded in one week and mixed the following week.

Bronson has numerous songwriter awards to his name, including taking first place at MerleFest's Chris Austin Songwriting Contest, winning Eddie's Attic Shootout in 2005 and the 2013 Eddie Owen Presents Songwriter Shootout.

He was a finalist at the Kerrville Folk Festival, Rocky Mountain Folks Fest Songwriting Contest and New Song Contest at Lincoln Center in New York City.

Derek Wayne Martin

Derek Wayne Martin

Derek Wayne Martin got his hands on a six-string guitar early on and began to write.

"When I was really young, I used to just stream together a basic chord progression without lyrics and call it a song. I would take my guitar to church and ask everyone to listen to it. Thank God they humored me, and I moved on from that," he recalls.

Martin has been a winner multiple times of the Eddie Owen Presents open mic in Duluth, Ga., and has been a contender in the Eddie Owen Presents Shootout.

Now living in Chattanooga, the musician is also a missionary working with Reliant Mission out of Orlando, Fla.
