Best known as the writer of classic Eagles hit such as \u201cPeaceful Easy Feeling\u201d and \u201cAlready Gone,\u201d Jack Tempchin\xa0is a prolific Southern California troubadour. Emerging from the San Diego folk scene, Tempchin became a fixture in L.A.\u2019s Laurel Canyon music community in the late 60s and early 70s where he formed personal and musical alliances with Jackson Brown, J.D. Souther, Glenn Fry, and others. Following his songwriting success with the Eagles, Jack\u2019s band The Funky Kings scored with \u201cSlow Dancing\u201d a\xa0Tempchin-penned composition that went on to become a Top 10 pop single for Johnny Rivers and a Top 10 country hit for Johnny Duncan. In the 1980s he and former Eagle Glenn Frey collaborated frequently, co-writing Glenn\u2019s hits \u201cI Found Somebody,\u201d \u201cThe One You Love,\u201d \u201cSmugglers Blues,\u201d "You Belong to the City," and more. In the 1990s he found success in the country field when his songs were recorded by artists such as George Jones, Sammy Kershaw, Patty Loveless, and Trisha Yearwood. As an artist, Jack has released a half dozen studio albums and a handful of live records. His most recent EP, Room to Run, is available now via iTunes and Spotify, and his new album Leaning to Dance will be released this summer. Additionally, Jack has recently launched a series of online videos called "Go Write One," which is designed to inspire people to create their own songs. We assume he knows what he\u2019s talking about because, in addition to the artists already mentioned, Jack\u2019s songs have been recorded by Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt, Wilson Phillips, Buck Owens, Tanya Tucker, the Desert Rose Band, Dwight Yoakam, Glen Campbell, Kenny Rogers, and the list goes on and on....
