b"In this episode of Pelham Place, I welcome singer-songwriter Victoria Banks. Victoria moved to Nashville in 1997 with the prospects of becoming one of the greats in songwriting. She has contributed to many chart-breaking songs like\\xa0Saints and Angels (Sara Evans),\\xa0Come on Over (Jessica Simpson), and most notably\\xa0What Are You Gonna Tell Her (Mickey Guyton). An honorable mention goes to Garth Brooks for recording Midnight at a Red Light, although it was never released. Victoria shares with us her experience working in the music industry as a woman, being a part of a historic moment in country music, and gives us an in-depth description of how things work behind-the-scenes at NBC's Songland.\\nTIMESTAMPS:\\n[00:00] Introduction\\n[02:00] Songland\\n[02:30] Pitching a song to Florida Georgia Line\\n[05:50] The behind-the-scenes process\\xa0\\n[11:07] Feeling connected to a historic moment in country music\\n[14:45] Co-Writing What Are You Gonna Tell Her?
