DESCRIPTION:
In September of 2012, Jon Vezner was named as a NHCC Distinguished Alumnus. At the event Jon was recognized for his musical accomplishments as a Grammy-Award winning songwriter. Jon has written music for Martina McBride, John Mellencamp, Faith Hill, and Reba McEntire. In 1990 he received a Grammy Award for "Best Country song" and "Song of the Year" from the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music for the song he co-wrote with Don Henry called "Where've You Been?" which was recorded by his wife, Kathy Mattea.

Jon was invited to perform at the NHCC Foundation's gala in March. In preparation for his return to the NHCC community, he offered to lead a songwriting workshop for students on campus. From the workshops, "Trust Yourself" was born. Jon and the North Hennepin students thrilled guests at the foundation gala when they performed this song. In May, Jon returned to campus and recorded the song professionally with his students. Look for the song to be released in the near future. Enjoy and share!
