“Road To Bethlehem” With Pre-Order
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – With a nationally broadcast television series and a non-stop touring schedule, Multi-GRAMMY® nominated duo Dailey & Vincent are wrapping up 2018 with the release of their first-ever Christmas record, Dailey & Vincent: The Sounds of Christmas, available Oct. 12 from BMG. The Sounds of Christmas experience is more than just an album release as momentum continues throughout the holiday season with a nationally broadcast television Christmas concert special, four all-new Christmas episodes of “The Dailey & Vincent Show” on RFD-TV and a 15-city Christmas tour.
Parade.com exclusively premiered the album art and a first listen to the Dolly Parton collaboration “Road To Bethlehem,” featuring stunning harmonies and tuneful string picking (Laura Whitmore).

Dailey & Vincent: The Sounds of Christmas features Christmas classics like “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree,” “Carol of the Bells” and “Go Tell It On The Mountain” as well as never-before-heard holiday tunes such as “Road To Bethlehem” featuring Parton, written by Country Music Hall of Fame and Gospel Music Hall of Fame member Jimmy Fortune and Jeff Bates. 2018 Country Music Hall of Fame inductee Ricky Skaggs also joins Dailey & Vincent on a cut of Alabama’s “Tonight It’s Christmas,” which is one of two bonus tracks available exclusively when fans purchase the Christmas record at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® locations and online at CrackerBarrel.com.
“I’ve wanted to record a Christmas record my whole life, so to say I’m unhinged with excitement over the release of The Sounds of Christmas is an understatement!” expressed Jamie Dailey.
“It’s been a dream of ours the past 10 years. Timing is everything, and we’re very happy we waited. The song selection on this album takes you through a journey from childhood to adulthood, laughs, memories and the true meaning of Christmas,” added Darrin Vincent.
To coincide with the record’s release, the Grand Ole Opry stars recently taped “The Sounds of Christmas,” a broadcast television concert special, at The Franklin Theatre. During the sold-out special, which was produced by BMG Filmed Entertainment and directed by BMG’s Joe Thomas, Dailey & Vincent were joined by fellow entertainers, including CeCe Winans, Béla Fleck, who have a combined total of 26 GRAMMY® awards.
Fans throughout the country can hear songs from the new record as well as other Dailey & Vincent staples live on “Dailey & Vincent’s A Springer Mountain Farms Chicken Christmas Tour.” The 15-city tour kicks off in Virginia on Nov. 24.
