Tree Adams has signed on to score the ABC drama pilot Nashville. The show stars Connie Briton as the 40-year-old Nashville fading superstar Rayna James whose label requires her to team up with a teen sensation, played by Hayden Panettiere, or else face the loss of her own tour and the label’s promotion of her latest record, whose sales have been underwhelming. Powers Boothe, Eric Close, Jonathan Jackson and Charles Esten are co-starring. The drama is created by Academy Award winner Callie Khouri (Thelma & Louise) who is also producing the project with R.J. Cutler (The September Issue) and Steve Buchanan. Cutler is also directing the pilot.
