After moving to Nashville in 1993, Rivers quickly found his place in the world as an entertainer, studio guitar player and songwriter. In 1996, Rivers signed with Universal Music Publishing and remains with the company today. Artists, including Gretchen Wilson, Gary Allan, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Carrie Underwood, Brooks & Dunn, Kenny Chesney, Brad Paisley, LeAnn Rimes, Keith Urban, Trick Pony, Blake Shelton, Deana Carter, Montgomery Gentry, Clay Davidson, Jamie O'Neal and Andy Griggs have since recorded Rutherford's songs.

Rutherford claimed his first number-one hit, "Aint Nothin' 'Bout You", in 2001. The song spent six weeks at number one and is to date the most successful single ever recorded by Brooks & Dunn. Rutherford was honored by ASCAP and received their Song of the Year Award in 2002. Since the smash hit with Brooks & Dunn, Rivers has accomplished six more number-one singles: Tim McGraw's "Real Good Man"; Montgomery Gentry's first number one, "If You Ever Stop Loving Me", which he also produced; Gretchen Wilson's "Homewrecker"; Brad Paisley's duet with Dolly Parton, "When I Get Where I'm Going" (which has received both the ACM and CMA nomination for Song of the Year), Kenny Chesney's "Livin' In Fast Forward" and the current Trace Adkins number one single "Ladies Love Country Boys"

ASCAP's Songwriter of the Year trophy for 2006 will be shared between Brett James and Rivers Rutherford. Rutherford's hits in the past year include Chesney's 'Living in Fast Forward', 'Gretchen Wilson's 'Homewrecker' and Brad Paisley's 'When I Get Where I'm Going. "I'm trying not to look back, Rutherford said. "I try to look forward. When I'm happy is when I know I've written something I really love."

While Rivers continues to enjoy songwriting success, he plans to expand performing and recording while currently producing material for artists such as Montgomery Gentry and Cole Deggs.

Rivers has a new album is in the works - more information will be posted soon!
