DAILEY & VINCENT SCORE SECOND #1 ON SIRIUS BLUEGRASS CHART

DAILEY & VINCENT SCORE SECOND #1 ON SIRIUS BLUEGRASS CHART WITH “MORE THAN A NAME ON A WALL”
  
 
NASHVILLE, TENN.  (May 29, 2008)—New Rounder Records duo Dailey & Vincent top this week’s Count Down Yonder Weekly Top 17 Songs of SIRIUS Bluegrass with “More Than a Name on a Wall” from their self-titled CD released in January.  The song, written by Jimmy Fortune and John Rimel about the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, was a hit for the Statler Brothers in 1989 and is still moving and timely today.
 
This is the second time Jamie Dailey and Darrin Vincent have topped the SIRIUS Bluegrass countdown.  Their first #1 was “By the Mark,” a gospel number written by Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, featuring the pared-down sound of Jamie and Darrin’s voices, guitar and mandolin.  It remained at #1 for four weeks.  In the No Depression review of Dailey & Vincent, writer David Baxter comments, “ . . . their sparse, reverent rendering of Gillian Welch & David Rawlings’ ‘By The Mark’ could plant a seed of faith in the hardest of skeptic hearts.” 
  
Dailey & Vincent will be guest DJ’s on SIRIUS Bluegrass 65 on Friday, May 30, at 5 p.m. eastern.  They are also hosting the Ernest Tubb Midnite Jamboree on Saturday, May 31, with special guest Jimmy Fortune.  Fans can tune in on 650 AM WSM, or listen online at http://www.wsmonline.com starting at midnight (central).
