The country singer wrote the theme for the Masters golf tournament in Augusta and had a hit in 1974 with Please Come to Boston

Country singer Dave Loggins, who wrote the theme song for the Augusta golf tournament and had a solo hit in 1974 with the song “Please Come to Boston,” has died at the age of 76.

According to The Tennessean, the musician died on Wednesday at Alive Hospice in Nashville, Tennessee.

Loggins holds the honor of being “the only unsigned artist” to win a CMA Award, according to the outlet. He received the aforementioned honor in 1986 for his duet with Anne Murray titled “Nobody Loves Me Like You Do.”

The musician was born in Shady Valley, Tennessee and grew up in Bristol, Tennessee. He later moved to Nashville to pursue his music career.

Described by the outlet as one of Music City’s “most prolific songwriters,” Loggins wrote songs for a number of notable artists in the country genre and beyond over more than 50 years.

Artists he wrote songs for included Reba McEntire, Smokey Robinson, Wynonna Judd, Joan Baez, Lee Greenwood and Three Dog Night, as well as deceased stars such as Johnny Cash, Kenny Rogers, Toby Keith and Ray Charles.

Loggins wrote Augusta, his musical contribution to the golf tournament, in 1981 and, according to Wide Open Country, it was played on CBS during the annual event in 1982. It was also played during CBS’s coverage of NFL and SEC football.

According to the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, Dave Loggins was the second cousin of Kenny Loggins, known for hits such as Footloose, Danger Zone and I’m Alright.

At Loggins’ personal request, there will be no funeral, the newspaper said.

Instead of flowers, Loggins’ family said donations could be made in the singer’s name to the nonprofit organization Alive Hospice.

The singer-songwriter leaves behind his sons Quinn Loggins, Kyle Loggins and Dylan Loggins as well as his grandson Braxton Loggins.
