Award-Winning Duo Celebrates 10-Year Milestone Plus 125th Anniversary of Historic Ryman Auditorium
Award-winning American music duo Dailey & Vincent were honored last night at their SOLD-OUT show at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium. The concert was held as part of the 2017 Springer Mountain Farms Bluegrass Nights at the Ryman series, where the chart topping duo were presented with a cake, commemorating 10-years together as a duo, also celebrating the Ryman’s 125th Anniversary. Grand Ole Opry GM Sally Williams was on-hand for the monumental presentation, while also showing photos from Dailey & Vincent’s first show together, which happened to be at the Opry. The event showcased Dailey & Vincent’s dynamic style, shifting from a full band sound to quartet, trio, duo, a capella and beyond.
“Dailey & Vincent have been thrilling audiences for a decade as part of Springer Mountain Farms Bluegrass Nights at the Ryman,” says Grand Ole Opry GM Sally Williams. “It’s no wonder why. They’re the full package – supremely talented musicians, top-notch entertainers and two of the nicest guys around.”
Dailey & Vincent performed several fan-favorites, including new songs from their latest critically-acclaimed project Patriots & Poets. There were a few surprises as well, as country legend Lee Greenwood stunned fans, joining Dailey & Vincent for a rendition of the iconic patriotic smash, “God Bless the U.S.A.”
“The sold out crowd at the Ryman Auditorium for Dailey & Vincent is not only a testimony to their popularity, but also a testimony to the interest in this group,” said WSM’s Eddie Stubbs. “They delivered the goods, getting standing ovation after standing ovation. Fans were royally entertained. Dailey & Vincent truly delivered a show.”
For more than two decades, the Ryman Auditorium has celebrated their distinction as the birthplace of bluegrass music. There are still two more chances for fans to be a part of the 2017 Springer Mountain Farms Bluegrass Nights at the Ryman series. In addition to recent performances from Dailey & Vincent, Vince Gill, Earls of Leicester and Soggy Bottom Boys, upcoming shows will feature Infamous Stringdusters and Ricky Skaggs & Kentucky Thunder.
